The Dajia Mazu Pilgrimage is a multi-day pilgrimage in which an effigy of Mazu, Taiwan’s most important sea goddess and female deity, is carried by believers throughout Western Taiwan visiting various temples along the way. One of the largest religious events in the world, the celebration was identified as one of the world's three major religious festivals by the Discovery Channel. Anyone is welcome to join the pilgrimage, and supporters often provide refreshments and snacks for free to those marching as they pass by.
