Influenced by folk beliefs, Taiwan Province developed the custom of being an adult at the age of 16.

Taiwan Province Tongzhi Draft records: "Taiwanese customs believe in God and Buddha, thinking that children's growth depends on the protection of the Empress Zhu, Qi Nian Ma, Mazu, Guanyin and Bed Mother, so they regard it as the protection of God ... after sixteen years, they still protect God's birthday by name."

According to this custom, when children are in infancy, people in Taiwan Province will bring them to the gods to ask for a "rope around their waist or sleeves" as a keepsake for their children, and pray for the gods to bless them by "changing their clothes" every year. Until the child reaches the age of 16, it is confirmed that the child has grown up with the ceremony of "taking off" to thank God.

Today, there are many new forms of rite of passage in Taiwan Province. For example, the Chinese Department of Taipei University has crowned the sophomores, reminding them to be cautious and independent adults, and to change from the role of being cared for to the role of caring for others. In addition, the teachers of the department take each student's character and ambition as their "life word", hoping that they can make themselves expect to become saints and sages.

Xiaoming Girls' Middle School in Taichung City takes "painting me 15 years later" as an adult ceremony. Senior two students share their growth experiences with classmates, teachers and parents through prayers and discussions, and finally wear crowns with flowers and thorns to symbolize their responsibility for their glory and pain. Then let the students draw themselves 15 years later with painting, and let the students think about their lives carefully.
