The Boat Burning Ritual takes place every three years at the imposing ceremonial archway in front of Tungkang's resplendent Tung-lung Temple. A boat, filled with models of a modern house, traditional clothing, cars, horses, and electrical appliances, all made of paper-mache, as well as sacrificial offerings of pork, beef and lamb, is burnt as offerings for Wen Wang-yeh to enjoy.
