Welcome to Meizhou Island, known as "Mecca in the East, Potala Palace on the sea". I'm Xiao Li, the tour guide. Now, please follow me to pay a visit to the goddess Mazu and the ancestral temple.
In order to let you know more about Meizhou Island during your tour, I'd like to introduce the general situation of Meizhou Island by boat: it covers an area of 14.3 square kilometers. Because it's shaped like a human eyebrow and embedded in thousands of blue waves, it's named "Meizhou". It's not only the place where Mazu lived since childhood, but also the place where Mazu temples are famous at home and abroad. My friends, Meizhou Island has arrived. Please take your luggage and belongings with you and follow me to get off the ship. Please be careful at your feet and pay attention to safety!
Looking ahead, there are groups of pilgrims. They include Taiwan compatriots and overseas Chinese from across the sea, as well as pilgrims from the mainland. Have you noticed that there is a statue of Mazu in front of these teams? Are your friends very curious? In fact, these statues were sent out from the ancestral temple before. Now they send her back, also called "Mazu back to her mother's home". This phenomenon is often seen here, which proves that the fragrance of Meizhou Island is very strong.
Please look at this magnificent building in front of us. Does it look like the Potala Palace in Tibet? This is Mazu temple. Now we are at the first gate of the ancestral temple, the mountain gate. Because Mazu is the "goddess in the sky" and the supreme goddess, its specifications are built according to the royal palace. In the mountain gate, there are two gods, Qianliyan and shunfenger. It is said that Qianliyan and shunfenger were sea monsters recovered by Mazu.
We walked up the stone steps and saw the second gate of the ancestral temple, Yimen. You see, there is a plaque on the top of this instrument door, which says "imperial edict", so it is also called "imperial edict door". The square we see now is the place where large-scale music and dance performances are performed at every memorial ceremony. On my left and right are the bell tower and the drum tower. Friends, let's keep going. Now we come to the "Prince hall", which was built by Yao Qisheng, governor of Fujian Province. You may wonder why there is a prince hall in Mazu temple. It is said that Yao Qisheng was sheltered by Mazu and successfully completed the task assigned to him by the emperor. Yao Qisheng was named "Prince Shaobao" by the emperor. In order to thank Mazu, The "Prince hall" was built here. At the beginning of the construction of this hall, it was intended to become the main hall, but the folk custom is still willing to follow the ancient system. I only think that the building next to me is the most primitive main hall. Now let's visit the main hall with me.

Hello everyone! Welcome to Meizhou Island National Tourism Resort, which is known as "Mazu holy land, pearl of the sea". My name is __, and I'm the tour guide of this scenic spot. First of all, I'd like to introduce the basic situation of Meizhou Island.
Meizhou Island is located in the northern half of Meizhou Bay mouth, 42 kilometers away from Putian City. It is called Meizhou because it is located between the sea and the land and is shaped like an eyebrow. It is 9.6 km long from north to South and 1.3 km wide from east to west, covering an area of about 16 square kilometers, with a population of 38000. The island is densely forested, with numerous harbors, winding coastlines, continuous beaches and beautiful scenery. The high-quality beach around the island is more than 20 kilometers long and can be built as a bathing beach. It is an ideal resort.
Meizhou Bay is adjacent to the Taiwan Strait in the southeast, and is far away from Taiwan. Mazu on the island is famous at home and abroad. Mazu's original name was Lin Mo Niang (960-987 A.D.), because she was born to the full moon and never cried, her father named her "Mo". She was smart when she was young. She could recite sutras at the age of 8, interpret texts at the age of 10, learn Taoism at the age of 13, and cross the sea on waves at the age of 16. On the ninth day of September in the fourth year of Yongxi of Song Dynasty, when Lin Mo Niang was 28 years old, she bid farewell to her family and naturalized and ascended to heaven on Meiyu peak of Meizhou Island. In memory of her, people set up a temple beside the "historical site of rising to heaven" on Meizhou peak and worshipped her as the goddess of the sea, goddess of the dragon, goddess of the sea, etc. In Song Huizong's time, Mazu was granted the title of "Shunji lady", which was the first time that the court praised Mazu. In the later dynasties, the imperial court granted her such honorary titles as "Princess of heaven", "Queen of heaven" and "virgin of heaven".
Meizhou Island is the hometown of Mazu. The Mazu temple here is known as "Meizhou Temple of Tianhou Palace". The temple was founded in the fourth year of Yongxi of Song Dynasty (987 A.D.), that is, the same year when Lin Mo Niang died. At the beginning, it was only a few rafters. Later, it was expanded in successive dynasties and became more and more magnificent. Zheng He, a famous navigator of the Ming Dynasty, made seven voyages to the Western Ocean. He came back and said, "God shows his holiness on the sea." before his seventh voyages, he was ordered to come to Meizhou Island to preside over special Royal ceremonies and expand temples. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, general Shi langzou said, "the sea was aided by God", and he was ordered to expand it. At present, Mazu temple has been renovated and carved with new buildings. It has become a holy land for Chinese seafarers all over the world to worship and for compatriots at home and abroad. Mazu temple, Tianfei palace and Tianhou Palace are all over Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao, as well as Haikou docks and inland ports in mainland China. They are also distributed in Southeast Asia and 17 countries in the world, such as Japan, Korea, India, the United States, France, Denmark, Brazil and Argentina. It is necessary that Mazu belief exists where there are Chinese. In Taiwan, there are more than 5000 Mazu temples, large and small, and more than 14 million Mazu believers. On March 23 of the lunar calendar, Mazu's birthday is full of people inside and outside the temple.
In the book of songs, a love song says, "the so-called Yi people are in the water.". That is to say, the woman I miss lives on the Youzhu, which is full of water and grass. Strange to say, the girls on Meizhou Island are very smart, white and tender. They are not as "swarthy" as ordinary people on the beach. The old saying "beauty comes from Meizhou" is still popular today. Whether it is worthy of the name or not will soon be seen.
Meizhou Island is famous for its cultural landscape and beautiful mountains and rivers. In the Ming Dynasty, Qin Bangqi wrote a poem when he was "watching the waves" on the island: "the scenery of Meizhou is better than Penglai in the Qing Dynasty, looking around Cangjiang River and returning to the sky. The moon is full, the islands are still, the tide is coming, and the silver house is in full swing. The beautiful scenery of Lanhua peak, the exquisite rocks and the piles in the clouds are all wonderful.
Meizhou Island is only 72 nautical miles away from Taiwan. It traditionally lives by fishing. Nowadays, with the development of tourism industry, especially in 1992, the State Council approved the establishment of Meizhou Island National Tourism Resort. The tourism economy of Meizhou Island has been injected with new vitality, which has greatly promoted the economic and social development of the resort.
Mazu culture in Meizhou Island is unique. It is a part of Chinese traditional culture and a wonderful flower in traditional culture. Mazu culture has rich connotation and extensive extension, involving religious history, folk custom history, navigation history, science and technology history, architecture history, literature history, art history, overseas Chinese history, Sino foreign relations history and many other disciplines. It is a comprehensive subject with multi-disciplinary significance. Specifically, it includes architecture, sculpture, painting, calligraphy, poetry, couplets, cultural relics, folk culture, fairy tales, folk traditions, religious beliefs and so on. Interested friends can conduct in-depth research.
Meizhou Island folk customs and Mazu are inextricably linked. Out of worship for Mazu, the residents of the island hold grand temple fairs every year on March 23 and September 9, the birthday and ascension day of Mazu, attracting a large number of believers at home and abroad, especially in Taiwan and Southeast Asia. Temple fairs hold large-scale ceremonies. Mazu, like the Yellow Emperor and Confucius, enjoyed the imperial edict of spring and autumn. Mazu worship has a long history. It is said that the court began to worship Mazu in the 26th year of Shaoxing in Song Dynasty (1156 A.D.), which was revised repeatedly in the yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, forming the annual spring and Autumn Festival ritual and incorporated into the national ritual. After the replacement of the Qing Empire by the Republic of China, official ceremonies were suspended. In 1994, Mazu Cultural Tourism Festival repeated the ceremony. In recent years, through continuous modification and improvement, Mazu Festival has become one of the three major festivals in China, along with offering sacrifices to the Yellow River and Confucius. "Meizhou women" and "Hui'an women" have their own merits. "Meizhou women" clothing is one of the most distinctive folk customs in the resort.
The coastal scenery of Meizhou Island is beautiful and interesting. The coastline of Meizhou Island is 30 kilometers long, and there are 13 bay beaches along the coastline, among which jiubaolan beach at the southwest end is the most spectacular. Although the peaks on the island are not high, there are many strange peaks and rocks everywhere. The stones are famous for their "strangeness and interest", mainly concentrated in the scenic area of ewei mountain and riwenkeng.
Meizhou Island has a close relationship with Taiwan. Tourism to Taiwan is another characteristic of Meizhou Island. There are more than 3000 Mazu Fen Ling temples in Taiwan, with about 16 million believers, accounting for more than 70% of the total population of Taiwan. During the Mazu Millennium sacrifice in 1987, more than 50000 Taiwan compatriots gathered on Meizhou Island for a pilgrimage, which set off an upsurge of people to people exchanges between Meizhou and Taiwan,
Since 1995, about 100000 Taiwan compatriots have come to Meizhou Mazu temple every year to pay homage to their ancestors and offer incense. It is the place where the mainland attracts the most Taiwan compatriots. On May 6, 1989, Mazu believers in the South Tiangong Temple of su'ao, Ilan County, Taiwan organized 24 fishing boats and 224 people to make a direct voyage to Meizhou Island for worship, which was the first direct voyage on both sides of the Strait after the founding of new China. Since then, dozens of Taiwan fishing boats have sailed directly to Meizhou Island every year, forming the reality of "no official access, no private access, no public access and no secret access" between the two sides of the Strait. On October 8, 1989, LAN palace, Dajia Town, Taiwan organized thousands of pilgrims to escort Taiwan Mazu to the ancestral temple, setting a precedent for Taiwan Mazu to visit the mainland for the first time in 40 years; In January 1997, with the support of the central government, Mazu Jinshen of Meizhou successfully toured Taiwan for 102 days, touring the whole island and paying homage to more than 10 million believers. It was called by Taiwan media as "a journey back to the century" and became the top ten news in Taiwan at that time, causing a huge sensation at home and abroad; In July 20__, LAN palace of Dajia town organized a large-scale pilgrimage group, including more than 20__ believers and 19 Taiwan news units, to visit the island, creating the largest number of cross-strait non-governmental exchanges; On May 8, 20__, at the invitation of Kinmen, Mazu Jinshen successfully toured Kinmen, setting a precedent for Mazu Jinshen's direct sea cruise to Taiwan, opening direct routes from Meizhou Island to Kinmen and Wuqiu Island, setting five "firsts" in the history of cross-strait non-governmental exchanges. As Mazu culture plays an irreplaceable special role in the work of Taiwan, it has been attached great importance by the Central Committee and leaders at all levels. When inspecting Fujian, more than ten party members, including __, Li Peng, Qian Qichen, Li Tieying and Wu Xueqian, all stressed the need to do a good job in Mazu's articles and develop cross-strait relations. Some even went to the island to inspect and guide the work in person.
On March 4, 20__, Meizhou Island was rated as a national AAAA tourist area. In addition, Meizhou Island is also one of the top 100 counties (districts) for greening in China, one of the advanced counties (districts) for afforestation in China, one of the demonstration sites of civilized scenic spots in Fujian Province, and one of the top 10 counties (districts) for beautiful environment in Fujian Province. Greening has become another beautiful scenery of Meizhou Island.
Meizhou Island is a beautiful island with boundless scenery. When you climb Meifeng, you can see mountains in the sea and the sea outside. The mountains and the sea are linked together. The sea and the sky are the same color. It's a fairyland on earth. There are more than ten scenic spots on the island, mainly concentrated in three large areas, namely "one center, two basic points". "One center" is Mazu Worship Center Meizhou Mazu temple. The "two basic points" are e-Wei mountain scenic spot and jiubaolan golden beach. Next, let's visit Mazu temple in Meizhou. Mazu temple is planned to be divided into three axes of "East, West and South". At present, it has invested more than 100 million yuan to build two axes of West and south. The West axis is 500 meters long and 100 meters wide, with a total investment of more than 50 million yuan. The buildings include memorial archway, Mountain Gate, imperial edict gate, bell and Drum Tower, Prince's hall, dressing house, Tianhou palace, Shengtian tower, etc. They enter the Mazu Cultural Park. There are two girls standing at the entrance of the park, namely "Meizhou women". They warmly welcome you to visit Mazu Cultural Park. "Meizhou woman" is wearing a sail style bun, sky blue clothes on her upper body and red and black pants. This is the unique dress of "Meizhou women" in the past, with profound implication. Along the steps, looking up, standing on the top of the peak is the landmark building of Meizhou Island - Mazu stone statue. The base of the statue is 14.35 meters high, and the whole statue is carved with 365 pieces of granite. It means that Mazu protects Meizhou (14.35 square kilometers) 365 days a year with smooth weather, peace and happiness, and the whole family of Mazu believers. There are 30 groups of Mazu story group sculpture garden behind the stone statue. Each group of group sculpture tells a beautiful and moving legend. After visiting the group sculptures, we can see that a beautiful building built on the seashore is Mazu stele forest, which is composed of a main stele and 99 auxiliary steles. It is divided into three categories: natural, antique and artistic creativity. It gathers the inscriptions of feudal emperors and the recitation of Mazu by literati. It also gathers the efforts of 100 famous calligraphers and celebrities at home and abroad. With novel conception and unique style, the forest of Steles has a unique cultural taste and artistic attainments. After seeing the forest of Steles, you come to the south axis. This is the new hall of ancestral temple, which was newly planned and constructed in 1998. It is a five entrance Temple style imitation Song Dynasty complex, 323 meters long and 99 meters wide. It means to commemorate the birthday of Mazu, March 23 of the lunar calendar, and the ninth day of September of the lunar calendar. The whole project, with an investment of more than 80 million yuan and a total construction area of 14268 square meters, has 12 projects, which were completed and opened to the outside world in October 20__.

Hello, everyone. Welcome to Putian for sightseeing. You've worked hard all the way. I'm the tour guide this time. My name is Zhang. You can call me Xiao Zhang.
Putian is located in the middle of Fujian coast, so it is called the middle of Fujian. In 1983, it became a prefecture level city with the approval of the State Council. The total area is more than 4200 square kilometers and the total population is about 2.85 million. In 980 ad, the Xinghua army was set up to govern Xianyou County, Putian County and Xinghua County, hence the name of Xinghua. In 1277 ad, the Xinghua army recovered from the loss, and duanzong ordered the Xinghua army to be named Xingan island. Because the north of Putian is the mountain, and Xinghua plain is in the south of the mountain, where the sun is direct, so it is called Puyang. Because it is rich in litchi, it is also called Licheng. Guo Moruo once came here to play, leaving behind the poem "Licheng is full of lychees everywhere". From this we can see that there are many lychees here. Litchi is rich in summer. Do you know what kind of litchi is delicious? Yes, thick, juicy and small core litchi is delicious. In Putian, there are four famous fruits, which are distributed in four different seasons. Therefore, Putian people can eat their own unique fresh fruits throughout the year. In spring, loquat is abundant here. It has thin skin and thick meat. It tastes very good. In autumn, it's the season of longan. Longan here has a very good taste. Its meat is very thick, thin skinned and small core. The local Xinghua dried longan is also very famous. In winter, you can eat Wendan pomelo here. It's small, so you will think it's very sour. In fact, it's not. Although it's small, its taste is sour and sweet No more sweet, no more sour.
Putian now governs four districts and one county, which are the New District of Putian City and Licheng District with industry as the center; Chengxiang District, the political, cultural and economic center; Hanjiang District, known as the hometown of overseas Chinese businessmen; Xianyou County, which is mainly agricultural; Xiuyu District, the richest district. Why is Xiuyu the richest. That's because, ah, Xiuyu district is close to the seaside, so there is less land to grow. So in order to make a living, everyone went out to work. Later, when they learned, they began to do business in other places. The people who do business outside are all over the country.
Now we are passing through Huangshi Town, where there is a favorite concubine of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, Mei Fei, whose original name is Jiang Caiping, who was selected by the envoys and sent to the palace. Because she likes plum blossoms, she was named Mei Fei. Have you ever seen the legend of Zhen Huan? Zhen Huan once danced a Jinghong dance, which made everyone here obsessed and praised. So do you know who created this Jinghong dance? That's our princess Mei. At that time, when she danced out of the Jinghong dance, she was gorgeous. Like all men, Tang Xuanzong was very proud and happy to have such a talented concubine, so he gave a Liyuan troupe to Putian. After later improvement, it became the present Puxian opera.
Mei Fei is as elegant as a plum blossom, but the king is bored after seeing her for a long time, so when he sees Yang Yuhuan, he tries his best to get her into the palace. Tang Xuanzong hoped that Mei Fei and Yang Guifei could serve him just like e Huang and nu Ying, but his ideal was full, but his reality was hard. When Yang Guifei just entered the palace, Mei Fei was depressed. Tang Xuanzong enlightened Mei Fei, hoping that Mei Fei could accept Yang Guifei. However, Mei Fei always felt that it was against ethics and advised the emperor to put the country first. Tang Xuanzong felt very guilty, so he wanted to give a high official to Mei Fei's father, but Mei Fei refused. So the emperor sent someone to Mei Fei's hometown to build a palace similar to the imperial palace for Mei Fei's family, but it was demoted and built, and the eaves were raised at both ends, which was called feiziji. The common people thought that the house was very beautiful, so they all followed suit. Later, when Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty knew about it, he ordered that it should not be built again. If it was built, it would be OK. So at that time, six ridges were built for the well-off family, and two for the ordinary family.
Because Yang Guifei was jealous, she often targeted Mei Fei. Later, Mei Fei was framed and moved to Lenggong. In the an Shi rebellion, Tang Xuanzong took Yang Guifei and fled, leaving Mei Fei. In order not to be insulted by the rebels, Mei Fei wrapped herself up with white cloth. After Tang Xuanzong returned to Beijing, he wanted to find Mei Fei because Yang Guifei was gone. So he sent someone to Shangyang palace to find Mei Fei, but finally found Mei Fei's body in the well. Later, Mei Fei's family took her body back to her hometown and buried it in her ancestral grave.
Putian is known as "Zou Lu on the seashore, the land of literature". There are many famous scholars here, such as Cai Jing, Cai Bian and Cai Xiang. The former two are both prime ministers, while Cai Xiang is a famous calligrapher. If we really want to talk about the famous deeds of Putian, I'm afraid we can't finish it in two or three days. Now let me briefly introduce a talented person in Putian. His name is Dai Dabin. He was born in Tangdong village, Xindu town, Putian County. Since childhood, he has been brilliant, especially good at fighting against others. It is said that his grandfather had a good friend named Wang Dabin. He was knowledgeable, but because of bad luck, he didn't have a high school. He was a teacher at home. Because he didn't get married, he raised a cat. After the cat died, he became ill. Before he died, Dai Dabin's grandfather came to take care of him, but he left without swallowing the rice noodles in his mouth. When Dai Gong buried him at home, his daughter-in-law had already given birth to a boy, but the child was crying all the time, and he had a mouthful of rice noodles in his mouth. When Dai Gong saw this, he thought about it and said to the little boy, if you are the reincarnation of Wang Dabin of the third society Then don't cry right away. I'll just change your surname instead of your name. Your name is Dai Dabin. It's strange to say that the child won't cry immediately. Because he had rice noodles in his mouth, he didn't eat Wenyang water, so he kept the memory of his previous life. He is a good friend at the age of three and a flower at the age of 13. In the year when he was in Tanhua, one of the three pairs of shoes embroidered by the queen was a child. The emperor felt very strange, so he asked the queen. The queen said that she dreamed that one of the three people in high school this year was a child at night, so she embroidered a pair of children's shoes. It can be seen from this that exploring flowers in Dai Dabin's works is the will of heaven. But because of offending Liu Jin later, Liu Jin killed her on the way back to talk about visiting her mother.
Let me tell you another story. This is about another famous person in Putian. His name is xiaowuge. Little brother five is very smart. He is as good at making pairs as Dai Dabin. Now, I'll tell you the story that it's difficult for the fifth brother to get the examiner. It is said that one year in Qiuwei, the examiners at that time were ignorant and sold officials. Five elder brother hears this examiners come down, think to tease him. When the examiner arrived at the three pavilions, he took a bench and untied his clothes to expose his belly for the sun. When the examiner's carriage arrived at this place, he saw a man lying in the middle of the official road. He sent someone to ask why, but the man said, "I'm full of scriptures. I can't reveal them. I'm going to get moldy, so I want to dry here." When the examiner heard this, he felt very strange, so he said, let him have a look. The man said: "the article is in the abdomen. How can I show it to you? I wrote it on the stone road. Please get off the sedan chair and have a look." So the examiner went to see, brother five, and wrote a sentence to go one step. The examiner followed him all the way to the gate of the city. He saw that the beans planted by the farmers on the land at the root of the city wall had begun to grow two leaves. Inspired by this, he said to the examiner, "students saw the scene in front of them, thought of a couplet, and asked adults to write the next couplet. "The examiner said," but it doesn't hurt to say so. " Five brothers said: "white beans unearthed, hand worship days, rain and dew." The examiner said, "it's the right thing to do. What's the difficulty?" So he wandered in the field, trying to find out the second couplet, but he was embarrassed to say that it was not right, but said that there was no absolute second couplet. Brother five said, "no, if there is a first couplet, there must be a second couplet." The examiner said, "well, you should listen to me." Five brothers said, let's make a bet. If I lose, I will be disqualified from this examination. The examiner said, if you can tell me, I will not be the chief examiner and go back immediately. Five brothers said it's a deal. Listen, red mushroom Dai Li, standing on one foot in the wind and frost. So the examiner felt ashamed and went back.
The folk custom in Putian is also very interesting. In addition to marriage and marriage, there is another form for people to get married. That is Lianggu. That is to say, both sides take into account the fact that neither side is allowed to suffer losses. Why does this happen? That's because the woman is the only one in the family, and the family's conditions are also rich. At this time, the family wants to say that they want to join the family. However, the girls in the family already have the object of their heart, and they are not willing to break up. So the two sides negotiate to have two children, One of them has the same family name as her. Therefore, the two goos were formed.
Girls in Putian are very expensive. Taking wathi town in Xiuyu district as the middle line, the price of bride price is slightly lower in the area to the north and west of Putian. It's about tens of thousands, and the most expensive one is hundreds of thousands. But in the area to the South and east of Putian, the bride price is basically hundreds of thousands, or even millions. So it's difficult to marry a wife here, for example If the family is not very rich, they may have to borrow money to get a daughter-in-law. When a bride gets married, she has to wear gold ornaments. Her hands are covered with gold bracelets. Some even wear gold ornaments around her neck and 10 fingers on her hands are covered with gold rings. Don't think it's tacky. It represents the importance the family attaches to the daughter. At the same time, it's also a deterrent to the groom. I hope my daughter married in the past and could be valued by her family.
When you come to Putian, you are not only for sightseeing, but also for special snacks. Because this is a coastal city, the special snacks here are related to seafood. If you have a chance, you can try some local snacks, such as stewed noodles, Xinghua fried rice noodles, fried eggs with oysters, stewed tofu, etc. of course, Putian is not only about seafood. If there are people who are allergic to seafood like Xiao Zhang, you can try some local lychee meat, fried meat, white cut mutton, Xitianwei flat food, etc.
Well, we have a general understanding of Putian food. Do you know where we are going today? Yes, the place we are going to visit today is Meizhou Island in Xiuyu district. Meizhou Island is called Meizhou because it is on the seashore and its shape is like eyebrows. Meizhou Island, with an area of 14.35 square kilometers, is the second largest island in Putian City. Nanri Island, the largest island in Putian City, is a sister island. Nanri island is famous for abalone, while Meizhou Island is famous for Mazu culture. Meizhou Island was rated as a national scenic spot in 1992, a national 4A scenic spot in 20__, and Mazu belief and custom was rated as intangible cultural heritage in 20__. This is the ancestral hall of all Mazu temples in the world. Chaotian Palace in BEIXIANG of Taiwan and Tianhou palace in Tianjin are the three largest Mazu temples in the world. Therefore, every year, the birthday of Mazu on March 23 and the ascension day of Mazu on the ninth day of September attract a large number of believers to come to worship, so here is called "Oriental Mecca".
The folk customs on the island are also very interesting. Every Mazu's birthday and ascension day, a large number of believers come here to visit, and a parade ceremony will be held on the island. Every year, the Lantern Festival is also very lively here, where large temple fairs are held, men and women dressed in costumes, and every household is decorated with lights.
Every year, the Spring Festival in China is the most lively, even the legal holidays will be several days more than usual. It can be seen that China attaches great importance to the Spring Festival, but it is different in Putian. Here, we attach great importance to the Lantern Festival. The Lantern Festival starts on the sixth day of the first month, and ends on the 29th day of the first month. And the Spring Festival is relatively not so lively. It is said that during the Ming Dynasty, Japanese pirates invaded this area. It was not recovered until the lunar new year was over. On the second day of the first lunar month, the people who went out to flee came back and saw the bodies all over the ground. They could not help but feel sad and sad. So later, people set this day as the detective day. Therefore, they were not allowed to go out on the second day of the first lunar month because they felt unlucky. Later people think it's inconvenient not to visit relatives and friends during the new year, so they say that if you go out on the first day of junior high school, then you don't have to taboo this on the second day of junior high school.
Have you ever seen the TV play "Mazu" performed by Liu Tao? This TV play is adapted from Mazu's deeds. It is said that when she was not born, there were one boy and five girls in her family. We all know that in feudal society, at that time, the family generally relied on men to go out to earn money to support the family, while women were not allowed to appear in public. Therefore, at that time, the family wanted to have another one, hoping to expand the family business. So, just like Avalokitesvara prayed, prayed that the Bodhisattva would give them another child. In the evening of March 23, 960, the villagers saw a beam of red light shining directly at the Lin family. At this time, the Lin family gave birth to a baby girl. Because she didn't cry or make noise from birth to the full moon, her father named him Mo, which means silence.
Lin Mo has been very intelligent since childhood, and she never forgets reading. Because her father was the marine inspection department at that time, Lin Mo has been exposed to the knowledge of Marine Meteorology since childhood. Because she often went out to sea with her father, she gradually became familiar with the water quality and mastered how to predict the marine climate. Whenever she predicts what's wrong with the weather at sea, she will remind everyone to avoid bad luck. And she would often help the people and fishing boats who were killed. So people at that time added a word "Niang" after her name and called her "Lin Mo Niang".
