[98th Cruise Report]Experience Taiwanese Traditional Temple Culture

June.2nd

Tonight was the final performance of Na-Cha FOLK&ARTS TROUPE (哪吒劇坊). They performed many times on board and taught many cultural classes, including Taiwanese Taiko, experiencing Lion Dance, and Electric-Techno San Tai ZI Dance. All the participants – no matter from which country they came from – enjoyed their performances and classes.

In their last performance they brought us Ba Jia Jiang. They ended the show with a bang!

The group leader, Mr. Gao Yuan Han described Taiwanese temple performances as just like a Chinese Disneyland. Disney has Snow White, and the Little Mermaid, but we have Lion and Dragon Dance, and Electric-Techno San Tai ZI.

Natajintogekibou has been on board for more than 20 days. They interacted with many participants and let everyone experience Taiwanese culture though practices and performances.
