"Taipei, Feb. 11 (CNA) A group of over 400 worshipers of Matsu -- known as the Chinese Goddess of Sea or Empress of Heaven to believers around the world -- will sail directly from Budai Port in southern Taiwan's Chiayi County to Meizhou Island in China's Fujian Province Thursday.
The pilgrimage, organized by the Tienhou Temple in Chiayi City, dedicated to Matsu, will take the visitors to the Tienhou Temple in Meizhou Island, which is the ancestral temple for the large number of Matsu followers across the globe, including those in Taiwan."
