9th Emperor Festival '10

I went for 9th Emperor festival in my home town last week and manage to get some pictures.
As usual, a lot of people.. Although it's already 12 mid night but the people still praying and enjoying..
And ofcourse i'm there to see people, not praying. Because i know nothing about how to pray. Kekekeke...

This is the main gate..
Taiping have a lot of 9th Emperor temple, and this is the largest and oldest temple..

Every one who want to pray must take vegetarian for 9 days or at least last 3 days..
Luckily i'm not praying. Hehe.. Vegetarian is not cheap, it's as expensive as meat and sometimes it's more more expensive..

Theatre for traditional performance..
Heard that it's for that something something to watch~~ Wuuuuu...

White color clothes represent their clean mind and body as they need to take vegetarian and clear their minds from temptation.
Try to look at the oil lamps that hanginf with bamboo stick. After the festival end, the lamps will be take down and keep.. What is the meaning? I also don't understand.. Wahaahaha...

Actually noon celebration got more things to see as those people will put the steel through their mouth and on their back. Ish ish!! A bit scary for me~~
