This is a very special ceremony in Taitung, Taiwan. It is generally believed that the Lord of Handan is the God of Wealth. Someone will be selected to play the role of Lord Handan. The man was wearing only a pair of red shorts and covered his face with a towel. He holds a branch in his hand to protect himself. He would then be carried on a sedan chair and firecrackers would be thrown at his naked body.
