The time-honored Na Tcha customs and beliefs of Macau, having been passed down from generation to generation, were inscribed on the National Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2014. Every year, on the eighteenth day of the fifth lunar month, the Feast of Na Tcha is celebrated at the Na Tcha Temple near the Ruins of St. Paul’s. Through such activities as a blessing ceremony, Taoist rituals, and Cantonese Opera performances, people worship Na Tcha’s power to ward off evil spirits and bad omens and pray for good health and national prosperity.
