關於本活動
There is a folk custom of offering the "First Incense Stick" at the beginning of the year. As the Lunar New Year approaches, specifically at midnight on New Year's Eve, the first incense offered to the deities signifies "First Prize" or "Good Fortune," and competing to offer it symbolizes striving for a smooth and prosperous year.
