Following the Tainan City Government's "One-day Wood Sculpture Restorer" event in August, this time it combines a new type of tourism experience with in-depth religion and culture. The City Tourism Bureau teamed up with local Siraya cultural and historical workers and traditional black flag painters Artists and a group of eight generals with a century of history jointly organize the "Tainan Religious Art Winter Tour". Mayor Huang Weizhe said that this is a religious art tour that spans different ethnic groups and different beliefs. Tainan’s process of mutual influence, competition, and finally symbiosis and integration allows everyone to understand this 400-year history. It also allows everyone to experience the beauty of religious art through tourism-type activities. People can also visit these religious sites on a daily basis and gain a thorough understanding of the process. You can also use the religious art guide website to learn about religious artworks and architecture based on the pictures.
Lin Guohua, director of the Tourism Bureau, said that this time, two experiential tours were launched, including an in-depth religious and historical tour "Three Gods Tour, Alizu, Xuantian and God" combined with the sightseeing of Da Neizuo Town, as well as many parent-child tours. "Old friends of Xuantian God in Laogushi Street, the old street of literary and youthful people, delicious food, and the Centenary Eight Generals Group" participated together. On the day the registration opened, the two registrations were fully booked, and it also received unanimous praise from the participating people. Together with the last "One-day Wood Sculpture Restorer in Fucheng" event, it was all conducted in the form of niche and expert guidance. This time, we cooperated with 4 teachers to bring you a different experience. I hope there will be related tours in the future. Joining such an itinerary will enrich your religious sightseeing tour.
There are a total of 30 places for this event, with 15 people in each of the two sessions. The first day was mainly for people over 16 years old because of the in-depth content. Mr. Zhang, a participant, said that you can see the Presbyterian Church and Siraya at the same time in Zuozhen. Three different religious beliefs (Ali Zu) and Beijidian (Xuantian God) coexist in the same Zuozhen area. It is very special. Compared with Western countries where the religious positions are clear and even opposite, it feels more like Taiwanese culture. The inclusiveness and freedom are valuable. Lin Rongzhao, the director-general of the Zuozhen Arctic Hall who guided the event, said that the Zuozhen Arctic Hall allows us to see two different ethnic groups choosing a joint altar to accept offerings from each other's believers under common challenges. , you can also see that the Presbyterian Church, which came all the way from the West, has become the scenery and an important belief in Zuozhen. The important clue linking these three different ethnic groups and beliefs is that the people who lived in Tainan 400 years ago The Siraya people of Tainan; the ones who led everyone to experience the black flag painting were the father and daughter of Zheng Shicheng and Zheng Yuxuan, teachers of "Zaoqi Black Flag" who promote the traditional black flag painting and symbol research in Tainan. They mentioned that the thunder symbol The pair is a common symbol of Han people's beliefs. Similar symbols are often found in Han people's talismans, but now it has become a blessing to protect Alizu. I hope tourists can understand him better if they see this flag when visiting palaces and temples. The meaning behind it.
Ke Yujie, the instructor of "Taiwan Bailong'an Ru Xing Cijing Hall" who leads the experience of generals, mentioned that he has followed his grandfather, Mr. Ke Tianjiang, to participate in general drills and temple activities since he was a child, and the civil and military officers of Ru Xing Cijing Hall are still played by children today. During the battle, parents will take care of the little family members all the way. It is an important family activity. I hope that through such activities, people can better understand the significance of family culture to families and parent-child education.
The tourism bureau added that the themes of the two events are related to the 400 years. The towns of Ouchi and Zuozhen visited on the first day are not only full of history related to Siraya, but there are also many sightseeing options in the surrounding areas and along the route. Attractions include Zuozhen Fossil Park, Zouma Lai Farm, etc. On the second day, we chose to visit the old Gushi Street (Xinyi Street) where the century-old generals still practice. It has now become an old street full of specialty shops and delicious food. The venue for the experience is Jifu Palace, which also houses the rare Xuantian God Golden Dragon Gate God. They are all religious artworks worth viewing again and again.
