Details
"The Amis Folk Center is located next to the Torik Tourist Center of the East Coast National Scenic Area Headquarters. The area is about 2 hectares in size, including an outdoor performance square and a lookout that can hold two thousand people at a time. It is a great place to experience Amis traditional culture.
Amis Folk Center
The center was established in November 1995. The main building of family and festival houses are based on the hand drawings of Guangfu Township in Hualien County from 1943 by the Japanese ethnologist, Chichiiwa Taro. The buidings here are an imitation of the Shaman's house in Taibalang community in Hualien County. Come and visit and observe the unique lifestyle of the Amis.
Amis Folk Center
In addition to the construction features, there is also a tribal folk center exhibition, crafts, specialty products for sale, food services, and traditional dance performances. "
