These lamps are carefully attended to in full of ceremonial grandeur throughout the Nine Emperor Gods Festival. Very few worshipers know the real significance of these lamps save a few speculations here and there. Perhaps these lamps represent the presence of the Nine Emperor Gods.
The lamps are attended to with a rhythmical beating of the gong.
At the other end of the pole, an attendant holds on to the pole so that it remains aloft, not touching the ground.
