Beigang Story House Introduction
Beigang Story Museum was grandly opened on March 23, 2012. Its founding purpose is to promote the compassionate spirit of Mazu, preserve the local cultural heritage that is on the verge of being lost, gather local craftsmen and artists, infuse new vitality, and collaborate with enthusiastic individuals to present the rich local characteristics in their original form and flavor, providing folklorists the opportunity for research and reflection on ancient artifacts. The Beigang Story Museum is a public-oriented venue, in line with the mission of Chaotian Temple. For example, Taiwanese student Wu Jianheng, with the support of Chaotian Temple and this museum, has promoted Mazu culture through traditional folk cultural elements such as Taiwan's San Tai Zi deity figures and Bajiajiang masks, bringing them to countries across Asia, Africa, and South America, embarking on a national diplomacy initiative. In the future, the aim is to expand this aspect, with hopes of elevating Beigang Mazu to the international folk stage.
