Zhupu altar

Zhupu altar

On July 15 of the lunar calendar, Zhongyuan Pudu is one of the most important annual folk festivals in Keelung City. The main places for sacrifice were in Xinshi street or caoweidian street in the early days (in the Xianfeng Period, 1855 AD). Later, they were moved to the main Putan of Zhongzheng park. It was built in 1960, opened in 63, and rebuilt in June 1990.

Introduction

The three-story main altar stands high on the mountain. It has a commanding geographical advantage. You can overlook the whole port and Keelung City from the altar. The lighting ceremony will be held on the 15th of July every year. The main altar with brilliant lights can be seen from different angles of Keelung City, making Keelung's night shrouded in this dazzling sea of lights.

On the first floor of the main altar, there is a Zhongyuan sacrificial relics museum, which displays and explains many rituals and props of Zhongyuan sacrificial ceremony, which is very worthy of tourists to explore.
