英文摘要:More than 100 years have elapsed since the first appearance of General Dance Group in Tainan during the Ching Dynasty, the first General Dance Group was named as “Taiwan 10 General Group of Wufu Emperor for Fuchou White Dragon Temple”, since then, due to the difference in the members of organization, the “Group of 8 General Dance (Pai-Chia-Chiang)” emerged, and became very popular all over Taiwan; it was more popular than that of 10 General Group. Since then, there were General Dance Group with different names and organizations, which showed up in different places, but most people called them “8 General Dance Group” without knowing the differences among them. During the Emperor-welcoming Festival of Dunggang, which appears once every 3 years, there are many General Dance Groups, besides the traditional “10 General Group”, “8 General Dance Group”, there are some unique General Dance Groups with Dunggang characteristics, Dunggang is the Number 1 in Taiwan in terms of the number of General Dance Groups. These groups in coordination with the by-passing activity of Tunglung Temple, shuttle in different parts of Dunggang, and create a lot of festival atmospheres. Because of the exchange activities among different temples in Taiwan, the General Dance group from other places will also participate in the festival activity in Dunggang.
