Tai'an Tribe / Daba69 Tribe Introduction
Tai'an Village is the Tamalakaw tribe of the Puyuma people located at the foot of Dabaliu Mountain. This place is the hometown of the renowned figure A-mei, who is celebrated as the "Queen of Chinese Pop." Despite being A-mei's hometown, there is no information or signage related to her in the village, as the community refrains from exploiting her fame and instead maintains its simple and tranquil atmosphere, which is increasingly valuable in this colorful modern society. When visiting Tai'an Village, you can first explore the traditional cultural worship plaza, which features the Puyuma people's traditional Parakuan, ancestral hall, and observation tower. The architecture here is more rustic and natural compared to other Puyuma tribes, exuding a strong sense of nostalgia. The cultural plaza is where the village hosts its Harvest Festival in July and the Grand Hunting Festival at the end of the year. During these times, many tourists flock to the area, and those interested can keep an eye out for information to experience the two significant ceremonies of the Puyuma people.
