Gods Festival Singapore
The Gods Festival in Singapore is celebrated through nine days of colorful street parades, wayangs (Chinese operas) and prayers. The Gods are paraded from the temple on to the busy streets on decorated sedan, which is drawn by eight bearers carrying incense, on the ninth day of the Gods Festival. The smoke of the incense is considered auspicious and people try to capture some for financial success in the future. The priests use their own blood to write charms during the climax of the Nine Emperor Gods Festival in Singapore.
The Gods festival is one of the loudest as well as the most sacred festivals in Singapore. One of the main attractions of the festival are the flag bearers who dance to the sounds of drums and cymbals and take part in the street parades when the nine gods are again brought back to their abode at the temple after a brief sojourn.
