2015 Xikou Cultural Festival Spotlights Local Tours
The annual Xikou Cultural Festival is here again! Songshan District Office has invited volunteers from the Hibiscus Association to arrange three guide tours in Songshan District, each highlighting different themes—history of Ciyou Temple, Green Trails of Xikou, and Children’s Fun. A total of six sessions are available on Saturday, May 16. Online registration runs between April 20 and May 10. Each session is limited to 20 participants. According to Songshan District Office Director Shieh Chiou-huo, the 2015 Xikou Cultural Festival will take a different approach. The guides will lead participants on a ‘quest’ across the Songshan District, exploring the neighborhood from the perspectives of historical heritage and natural landscapes. The District Office recommends individuals who have completed the knowledge-rich tours to visit the well-known Raohe Tourist Night Market adjacent to Ciyou Temple and satisfy their palate before the event reaches the climax with a night concert. Taking place at the plaza in front of Ciyou Temple, the concert will open with the release of LED sky lanterns by dignitaries, wishing for the success of the event.
