[Reporter Zhang Xuanzhe/Taichung Report] With the arrival of the Spring Festival, the major palaces and temples will be flooded with crowds. Dajia Zhenlan Palace said today that it will follow the central epidemic prevention regulations and promote the public to implement independent epidemic prevention. For the first incense event, the first 3 people can take home the big, medium and small Golden Mazu.

Affected by the epidemic, Zhenlan Palace in Dajia canceled the New Year’s Eve incense grabbing event for the first time two years ago. However, during the Chinese New Year, many people still came to worship in the temple. The lottery shop near Zhenlan Palace was even more crowded with people buying lottery tickets and scratch tickets.

This year's New Year's Eve, Zhenlan Gongzi will open the gate of the temple again by Chairman Yan Qingbiao and Vice Chairman Zheng Mingkun to welcome believers into the temple to grab the first incense.

The gate of the temple is expected to open at 11 o'clock on New Year's Eve on January 21, so that believers can grab the first incense.

During the Chinese New Year period, there are many people in the temple, and the temple officials also call on the worshipers to wear masks to implement personal epidemic prevention.
