Taoyuan City Indigenous Culture Center
The Taoyuan City Government established and completed the “Taoyuan City Indigenous Culture Center” in May, 2004 to pass down the culture, preserve the assets, implement the assistance, enhance the caring, and improve the welfare of the indigenous peoples. The Center is a four-story building with a basement floor covering an area of 0.3 hectares. The basement floor is equipped with a stage for mass gatherings that can contain about 600 persons; the first floor has one curation room, one office, one VIP lounge, the hall and the service desk; the second floor has two curation rooms and one relic collection room, while the third and fourth floors include one conference room and three general classrooms. Various indigenous cultural exhibitions are mainly arranged on the first and second floor of the Center while the third and fourth floors mainly focus on space for educational training. The Center established Yuanling Artistic Dance as the resident dance group performing aboriginal dances to deepen the aboriginal image for visitors. The designing of the Center integrated images related to the totems, carvings, and weaving of each aboriginal tribe, and planned to set up facilities such as the activity center, relic collection room, exhibition room, general classroom, conference room, outdoor square, children playground, and parking lot. In the meantime, the Center provides multiple services such as skill training, gathering, art performance, and work exhibition that made it become an aboriginal cultivation, inheritance, and exchange center providing knowledge, art, and culture and leisure.
