Therefore, whether the leisure during folk festivals are the same with those of the past or not, and the Benefits of these activities are worthy of exploring. Street-Level Bureaucrats are the people that come in close contact with the civilians.

Likewise, this project explores the following problems: 1.What are street-level bureaucrats’ attitudes about leisure? How much do they participate in leisure activities during folk custom holidays?

Then, the data collected are analyzed with descriptive statistics, T-test, single factor variation analysis, chi square test, Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis, and the following results are yielded: 1.The attitude of street-level bureaucrats towards leisure activities is positive.
