Wulai - Home of the Atayal Aborigine Tribe
Wulai is about one hour drive by car from Taipei. The local museum presented a brief history of the aborigine people who lived in Wulai. Their customs and culture reminded us of the American Indians.
The tram took us to the top of mountain. |
At the top of the mountain the vegetation and rainy weather reminded us of the Seattle area. |
Through the clouds and rain we could still see the beauty. |

Kite Museum
All the kites were very unusual, and hand made. Bob was allowed by the son of the owner of the collection to take only 5 pictures. This kite was a hawk carrying its prey, which looked like a cat. |
We have since learned that the Chinese invented kites some 2400 years ago. |
China Doll
But she was still TOO CUTE! |
