Pageant on Immortals, or Youshen in Chinese, is a folk custom in south China to pray for good fortune. It often includes statues of deities and a parade team that leads and carries the statues.
This time in Anxi, I went on a self-organized temple parade (or you can call it pageant on immortals) with 30,000 people - 人山人海 ! They carried the god and went on a 3 day long parade. On the first day we covered 15km which was a really mind-blowing thing...
This is the real off-the-beaten track in China, and fulfills all your fantasy about China!!!
Ps. Qingshui god is also an important god in Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, where Minnan people can be found!
