Taiwan's South Island Wedding [Swing] is the most important traditional wedding of the Paiwan and Rukai people. Swing (Kukai) is hung from a big tree with two vines, and then tied with a crossbar for the bride to sit on and swing back and forth. The groom pushes and pulls from below. If the bride swings high and straight, it means the wedding went smoothly. It is unlucky for the bride's feet to touch the ground when she stops the swing, and the groom must immediately carry the bride on his back. Then put her down. They completed the wedding ceremony. Other wedding activities are ver exciting?
