Reported about 1 year ago

In a program from SET News on July 9, 2024, at 7:25 AM, Ke Wantong and Lin Qiongyu report that incense cutting in Xigang is a nationally significant intangible asset. The incense ceremony displays a blend of rituals, dedicated followers for the deities, and the moving story of the water buffalo contingent supported by the gods for a century. The key figure behind Xigang’s incense cutting is the master craftsman Wang Liangtai, known as the 'Grand Master,' who holds the designs for all the ceremonial boats in his mind, passing down this expertise before his passing. Catch the full story on July 10 at 10:30 PM on SET Taiwan Channel 'Treasures of Taiwan'.
