Bombarding Handan God Festival is a folk temple activity that is passed down from Ching Dynasty and became a unique culture. It not only represents the feature of local culture but also attracts numerous tourists and was listed as one of the twelve Lantern Festival Celebrations.
「炮炸寒單爺」原是清代流傳下來的民間廟會活動，是台東市最獨特的文化風情，不僅代表地方文化特色，更吸引了大量外來觀光人潮，被觀光局列為全國十二大元宵節慶典活動之一。 It is said that Handan God named Chao Gong-Ming, was good at financial management and so is worshipped as Martial God of Wealth by people. He has a black face with heavy beard and rides a black tiger with a silver whip and sycee on his hands. Besides, he is said to be afraid of cold, so people play a large number of firecrackers to warm him up during the procession in order to get the God of Wealth’s blessing. Another legend is that Handan was a local gangster. In order to show his repentance after being attuned, he naked his upper body to receive people’s punishment on the street. Finally, he became a God of Wealth.
傳說寒單爺是趙公明，因為善於理財而非常富有，所以人民奉他為武財神。黑面濃鬚的他，騎著黑虎，一手執銀鞭，一手持元寶，據說非常怕冷，所以人們在每次出巡時都會大量的燃放鞭炮來替財神爺驅寒，以求能留住財神爺、得到財神爺的眷顧。也有傳說寒單爺原是一位魚肉鄉民的地方流氓，受到點化後為表示懺悔之意，於是赤裸上身遊街讓民眾洩憤以減輕罪孽，最後還變成財神。 During the procession, the idol is bound on the bamboo chair and there are two long bamboo poles tied on the chair legs. The naked to waist Handan acted by a man only wears red short pants and is lifted by four palanquin porters. The head is wrapped by a red towel in order to protect hair, ears, eyes, and head. The hand holding a banyan branch is to protect eyes and shield against firecrackers. Moreover, the face of Handan is sometimes painted colorful to symbolize sunshine, unlike the Handan God with a black face in other areas. People who act Handan carry Taoist master seal and amulet on their body and receive the blessing of firecrackers. 寒單爺出巡時，一般是將寒單爺的神像綁在竹椅之上，然後椅腳綁上兩根長竹竿，由四名轎夫抬著上身赤裸的寒單爺，上半身赤裸，只著一條紅色短褲子，頭上包裹著紅布巾，主要是用以保護頭髮、耳朵、眼睛和頭顱；手拿一把榕樹枝葉，主要是保護眼睛及便於把鞭炮擋下；此外，寒單爺面塗五顏六色的大花臉，象徵太陽光芒四射，有別於其他地區的黑面濃鬚寒單爺，一般寒單爺身前都會掛著神明保佑的天師印和保身符籙，接受鞭炮的洗禮。 |
