The Culture of Guanjiang Shou is a significant aspect of Taiwanese folk religion, especially within Taoism and local beliefs. “Guanjiang Shou” refers to a group of divine guards dispatched by the underworld to capture evil spirits, maintain order, and protect worshippers. They are often seen in temple festivals or folk rituals, dressed in elaborate armor with intimidating facial paintings, embodying a fierce and sacred image.
