Abstract

Worshipped by almost all Chinese people, Kitchen God mainly plays a role of "Say good things to God, guard people in the world." Chinese people often paste up Kitchen God paper-charm in their kitchens and hold ceremonies to worship kitchen god. There are single layer, bilayer and three-layer patterns and other special types of Kitchen God paper-charm. Its variety and development reflects people's dream of living in happiness through religious belief.
