The Last Cap Go 2559

Location : Ling Hok Bio shrine [Klenteng Ling Kok Bio, Gang Pinggir, Semarang]

Saturday, January 10th 2009 was the last full moon in the year of Imlek 2559 (day 15 of the 12th month of Imlek). The ritual of “Ketok Pintu” (to knock on the door) was held on that day (the last Cap Go) as the commencement of Pasar Imlek Semawis event. During the ritual, the Taoists prayed in the shrines located in the Chinese quarter (Pecinan) of Semarang. Four dancers from See Hoo Kiong shrine also added a liveliness to the festival and the Warak Ngendog attraction gave the audience more of a taste of Semarang.
