4. Main customs

Tamouis in Mauritius hold three baptisms every year. A few days before baptism, men and women who are baptized are not allowed to share the same room and must fast strictly. Baptism ceremonies are mostly held in front of temples. On the day of baptism, everyone will gather in front of the temple with yellow bouquets in their hands and yellow rings on their shoulders, wearing yellow robes, and light a huge pile of wood under the guidance of the wizard. The recipient first bathes in the "Baptism Lake" and then receives the "acupuncture" from his relatives. Relatives can stick dozens or hundreds of needles in the recipient's arms, chest, ears, lower forehead, thighs and even tongue to show their blessings. After acupuncture, the recipient should walk barefoot through the path paved by burning cinder to complete the ceremony of walking the flame. The whole christening ceremony takes one day. After the ceremony, the baptized will also invite all relatives to dinner to express their gratitude to them, and celebrate the success of baptism.

Mauritius is a country that has designated the Chinese New Year as a legal holiday.

The houses are hidden among trees and flower beds. Houses in rural areas are generally small bungalows built of bricks and cement, which are not only beautiful but also very strong.
