Zudu Lanxiang Village Handmade Soap Introduction
"Zudu Lan" is located in Dulan Village, its name pronounced in Hokkien, carrying a humorous double meaning. It is run by a couple who, for the well-being and upbringing of their child, made the bold decision to leave their high-paying jobs in Taipei and return to Taitung to open a handmade soap workshop. Through repeated communication, the couple chose the current location to create a comfortable and leisurely lifestyle space together; the bright, spacious, and design-rich architectural style often leads friends and first-time visitors to mistake it for a特色民宿 (characteristic bed and breakfast). The handmade soaps are crafted using local materials from the East Coast, including betel nut, tobacco, and millet. The production process emphasizes delicacy and persistence, and the packaging and sourcing of materials are closely collaborated with the Dulan community, fully showcasing the cultural features of the Amis people in Dulan, allowing the rustic village handmade soaps to embody the concept of returning to authentic life and telling the stories of the tribe.
