The Ching An Temple in Tainan County is a case in point. Its jurisdiction extends over 78 surrounding "marketplaces" (i.e. rural communities). Each time the triennial worship of Wang Tieh comes around at Ching An Temple, each of the villages sends its deity sedan chair and chen-t'ou to take part.
像台南縣西港鄉的慶安宮，其轄區便囊括鄰近的七十八個莊頭，每逢三年一科（次）慶安宮王爺祭，各莊頭便會派出神轎、陣頭前去捧場。
