The 'DA Chiu'(Praying Ceremony) held every ten(10) years in the HA Tsuen area of Yuen Long....just to give thanks for the times had and those ahead....

This particular parade may well be in Yuen Long, but on this occasion it is part of the annual Taiwan National Day celebrations held on the 10th October commonly referred to as The Double Tenth. This is clearly stated on the banner, evidenced by the flag - and I think the portraits are those of Premier Chiang Kai Shek and Dr Sun Yat Sung.

Checked closer..it is 'Double Ten' celebrations indeed(likely in Rennies Mill...Oct 10..late 60s.
