Traditional Arts Center - Yilan, Taiwan - Part 1

[upena 2]

I had one day off while in Taiwan - June 2008. My counterparts asked what I wanted to see and I am fond of markets and temples. So, off to Yilan we went. Enroute, we went through what has to be the longest tunnel in Asia - 12.9 Kilometers. Yilan is about a 2 hour ride from Taipei and a touristy step back in history. Most of the pictures are of a traditional wedding back in the day and others are from around the grounds. The entry fee was 150 Taiwan dollars (about $5 USD) and worth. Lots of store with artifacts, places where they supply the materials and you make the trinket, and plenty of food. Enjoy.
