Beiguan, Yilan

Beiguan is a performance complex in Toucheng where musicians and dancers practice and present traditional Taiwanese musical styles using drums, gongs, and wind instruments. The center has multiple spaces where these art forms are actively worked on throughout the day.

The site was founded to preserve traditional Taiwanese musical styles and has served as a cultural gathering place across generations. This commitment to ancestral musical traditions continues to shape the center today.

The musicians perform works that blend regional musical elements with storytelling methods rooted in local communities. These performances remain connected to how people celebrate and gather for community events today.

Visitors can attend performances held year-round, with schedules available at the entrance or upon request. Weekday afternoons are often good times to watch musicians rehearse, offering a chance to see the work happening behind closed doors.

The Li-Chuen-Yuan Beiguan Club within the complex functions as a school where local students learn the regional musical traditions from experienced teachers. This hands-on mentorship ensures knowledge stays alive and passes to new generations of practitioners.
