Taichung Folklore Park

Taichung Folklore Park is a cultural center in Beitun that houses several exhibition halls displaying traditional artworks, handcrafted items, and historical objects. The grounds include spaces for static exhibits as well as areas where craft demonstrations and performances take place regularly.

The project began in the 1980s and opened to the public in the mid-1990s as Taichung developed its cultural facilities. It was created in response to growing interest in documenting and preserving regional craft traditions and folk arts.

The park displays traditional crafts and artistic practices that come alive when artisans demonstrate their skills in the galleries and open spaces. Visitors can see how these inherited techniques are still valued and passed on by people working here today.

The location is in an accessible area of Taichung and can be reached using public transportation. Morning visits work well since it gets busier on weekends and holidays, and the afternoon sun can be quite strong.

The grounds separate areas for quiet viewing from areas with active demonstrations, allowing visitors to choose based on their interests. This division lets people experience the crafts both as static artworks and as living practices.
