In Taiwan folk customs, each time the birthday of a deity comes around, the faithful hold a festive parade around the temple area, with colorfully made-up folk artist and kaleidoscopic performance troupes, to express gratitude for divine beneficence.
在台灣民間每逢神明誕辰，信徒就以妝扮富麗的「藝閣」和包羅萬象的「陣頭」表演，喜洋洋地繞境遊行，敬謝神恩。
