The Miaoli Dragon Bombing inherits the traditional beliefs and seasonal rituals of the Hakka people. Since its promotion by the Miaoli City Office in 1998, it has become the foremost festival among the Twelve Major Hakka Celebrations and is recognized as one of Taiwan's Four Grand Lantern Festival Events, alongside Sky Lanterns in the North, Dragon Bombing in the Center, Beehive Fireworks in the South, and the Han Dan in the East. The Dragon Bombing event follows a seven-step ritual: Dragon Making, Walking with the Dragon, Dragon Eye Dotting, Welcoming the Dragon, Following the Dragon, Dragon Bombing, Burning the Dragon to Return to the Heaven. Each step carries profound meanings of blessing, warding off evil, and fostering community unity.
