National Center for Traditional Arts, Ilan County

Situated in Ilan County, the National Center for Traditional Arts facilities are well equipped to present traditional theater, music, handicrafts, dance, toys and games, and folk acrobatic performances which promote traditional arts and expand awareness throughout Taiwan. You see much going on in the pictures--sailing, brick making (the gold bricks are to celebrate the Chinese New Year and the hopes for wealth), a dragon balloon, the Chinese harp, a traditional wedding represented in the streets, and lanterns every where.
