Mazu:

Mazu, also known as "Tian Fei" and "Tianhou" and commonly known as "Poseidon Goddess", is the legendary goddess in charge of maritime shipping.

Mazu, formerly known as Maureen, was born on March 23rd, 960 in Meizhou Island, Putian, Fujian, and died on September 9th, 987 at the age of 28.

Parents believe in Buddhism, and Meng Guanyin is born with medicine. He studied Buddhism at the age of eight, at the age of ten and at the age of thirteen. In the fourth year of Song Yongxi (AD 987), he dressed up as a mountaineering stone and "ascended to heaven" as a god. In the thirty-third year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty (1694), local residents set up temples to worship, which were called "virtuous and spiritual women".

Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties have praised and sealed "Tiannv".

According to the sculpture dedicated to Mazu in the temple, Mazu's image is wearing a headdress, wearing a cassock, holding the best in hand, majestic and majestic.

The moral of the activity of "patrolling the border" is to "sweep away the evil spirit" through Mazu's patrolling the border and protect the peaceful and prosperous times of the border.

The most typical one is the Golden Body Parade of Mazu on Meizhou Island, from the ancestral temple where the light was opened in the satellites palace on the eighth day of the first lunar month to the welcoming palace in Caidong Village on the 14th night of the first lunar month (Shangxing Palace in Gongxia Village is special, and it is like a parade to carry Mazu in the palace on the 29th of the first lunar month).

During the tour around the country, believers bowed, burned incense and kowtowed along the way, and folded coins into fancy shapes to "hang" Mazu. The whole activity also showed Mazu's beliefs and customs, such as offering sacrifices, playing with knives and sedan chairs, traveling with lanterns, crossing Mazu's hometown, putting brown sedan chairs, being trampled by children, turning into ancestral temples, being eaten by children, and sending Mazu to the palace.
