Amis Folk Center Introduction
The Amis Folk Center was completed in November 1995. It was constructed based on drawings by the Japanese architectural educator Chijiwa Yasutarō from the Japanese colonial period, resembling the priest's residence of the Tabalang community in Hualien County. The wooden carvings on the beams depict totems unique to the Amis people of the Tabalang branch. The Amis are the main ethnic group in Chenggong Township, having settled here as early as the Qing Dynasty, forming communities. The old name of Chenggong Township, "Maloulu," comes from the Amis language.
