Don’t miss the annual Spring Sacrificial Ceremony held in Lunar February, featuring Confucian rituals, lion dances, and traditional music performances. Each first weekend of the month hosts the Book & Ink Market, where local artisans sell handcrafted books, calligraphy, and host poetry readings and tea ceremonies, reflecting the town’s scholarly heritage.
Visitors can participate in ancient manuscript copying sessions, sitting quietly in a temple hall to transcribe the Heart Sutra by hand—an immersive mindfulness practice. Guided tours also lead to hidden century-old pottery workshops, where guests craft their own clay bowl using traditional techniques.
These activities emphasize intangible cultural heritage preservation, transforming tourism into meaningful engagement with history, tradition, and community life.
Tip: Join early-morning sessions for a serene atmosphere and deeper connection with local customs.
