The pride of the Beiliu people
The hometown of the bronze drum king
The Beiliu water known as the "king of bronze drums". And this "king of bronze drums" is the product of Tongshi Ridge. The excavation of "King of Bronze Drum" has a legendary experience. In the Qing Dynasty, there was a farmer in Shike Township, Beiliu, who went up the mountain to cut firewood and grass, and tried his best to insert it vertically into the ground. However, when he heard a strange noise in the soil, the pole could not be inserted, so he pushed aside the soil and suddenly appeared a huge bronze drum. The villagers thought it was an artifact, and Mrs. Xian, the sixth Jingwei near Taiwan Island, offered sacrifices every second. Later, when Taiwan Island was flooded into the temple, the rope broke, so he stood at the Bodhisattva in the temple. Every winter, there is an opportunity to worship drums and pray for God in Shuichong Temple. The bronze drums are played, and the mountains ring and the valleys echo, and the villagers gather from all directions to worship God. this
