Cardib Cultural Park Introduction
Near Zhiben Railway Station, the Kadizibu Tribal Traditional Cultural Park is located nearby. The park features observation decks, Bala Guan (Kadizibu Youth Center), the ancestral halls of the three major clans (Mavaliw, Pakaruku, and Ruvaniaw), and Dagu Fan (youth gathering place), among other traditional structures. Since these traditional buildings are still important venues for gatherings of the Puyuma people, tourists are not allowed to enter. There is also a multi-functional activity center that showcases indigenous artifacts and historical information. Guided tours and DIY experiences can be reserved in advance through the "Zhiben Kadizibu Tribe" Facebook fan page, where guides will lead visitors to deeply understand the history and culture of the Puyuma people, visiting various religious sacred sites integrated into indigenous life. Visitors can admire traditional crafts created by local residents, and even purchase unique souvenirs. Local delicacies such as cherimoya can be tasted, and there are local dining establishments offering rich and fresh indigenous dishes. Delicious meals paired with lively indigenous music and dance provide a memorable experience. A small reminder: The opening hours of the Kadizibu Cultural Park depend on the tribe, and certain buildings must adhere to indigenous ceremonial etiquette. If entry is not permitted for tourists, women, or children, please do not enter!
