Dingkan Chibi God Painting Village Introduction
Hean An Painted Alley is located in the Zhushan Lane of Jiaxian, just a 10-minute walk from the Jiaxian commercial district. The alley features themes based on the local culture of Jiaxian, anthropomorphizing the three treasures of Jiaxian – taro, bamboo shoots, and green plums – along with the daily lives of the residents of Jiaxian, showcasing a warm and humorous rural landscape with playful interactions. The returnee youth from the Dingkeng Community initiated a community painting project with a focus on deities, illustrating popular figures such as Mazu, Kuan Gung, Xuantian Shangdi, Tudigong, San Taizi, and Yue Lao in a cartoonish style, incorporating contemporary items like mobile phones and scooters that interact with these deities, evoking smiles and bridging the gap between the divine and the human. The entire community features over 60 cartoonish deities, reflecting Taiwan's diverse and vibrant religious culture.
