There is also a peculiar custom about Mazu on Dongmen Island, legend has it that Mazu came to Dongmen Island, so the local fishermen chose the 23rd day of the lunar calendar Mazu's birthday zodiac auspicious day to sail north to DaiquYang fishing, held Mazu birthday celebration and farewell relatives to the sea, and now this custom has been interpreted into an important activity of the Chinese Fishing Festival - Mazu Patrol Fireworks Evening. Ishiura fishermen have always had customs such as "march 3rd, stepping on the beach" and "offering sacrifices to the sea", of which "sacrificial sea" is a ritual for fishermen to seek peace and harvest when they go out to sea to fish. Now the country implements a "fishing moratorium". The end of the "fishing moratorium" is called "fishing". The local government organized the original non-governmental activities of "offering sacrifices to the sea" into festivals, calling them "fishing festivals."
