Features: Traditional Taiwanese Han seasonal festivals and customs originate from the Fujian, Min, and Canton regions, including spring, summer, autumn, and winter seasonal customs. They preserve many traditional Han time concepts and sacrificial culture. To this day, people across Taiwan still maintain the rhythm of traditional seasonal festivals, hoping to receive blessings and well-being through devout offerings to deities and ancestors. This book covers the solar terms under the flow of time, seasonal customs in the context of solar terms, basic knowledge of sacrificial items for festivals, and detailed aspects of various seasonal customs. Through this, it not only preserves the sacrificial culture of the Chinese people toward seasonal festivals but also helps readers understand the rich and interesting connotations of folk customs.
