Presenting the indigenous costumes collection of the Ketagalan Culture Center, the permanent exhibition area has renewed its display to extend the exhibition &#8220;Time of Ceremonial Attire II.&#8221;<br>&#8220;Ceremonial attire&#8221; is just like special occasion dresses nowadays. The indigenous peoples would dress themselves circumspectly in rituals or festive events to attend worship and signifying identities. Indigenous costumes are unique for the exquisite weaving and embroidery skills of tribal women, who would assimilate legends and their observations of nature into various fabric and embroidery patterns, which have progressed through hundreds of years and become more and more splendid and valuable.<br>Taiwan\u2019s five mountain ranges \u2013 Central Mountain Range, Xueshan Range, Alishan Range, Yushan Range, and Hai&#8217;an Range \u2013 are used as background for the &#8220;Time of Ceremonial Attire&#8221; exhibition, according to regional divisions. For the indigenous people, mountains are not only the places of birth and their origins but also the common resting places of ancestral spirits. Mountains are also used by the indigenous people to mark the traditional indigenous areas.<br>The exhibition has several sections, featuring &#8220;Taiwan Indigenous Areas,&#8221; &#8220;Era of Wearing Plant Materials and Animal Skins,&#8221;

The Amis people (also known as the Pangcah) residing on the east coast, have a lifestyle closely tied to the ocean. Their daily diet and offerings for rituals come from the intertidal zones and estuaries. The ocean is a critical resource for gathering and a sacred space that carries the ethnic knowledge and wisdom. This exhibition features the artistic creations of the Amis people from the Makota\u2019ay community in Fengbin Township, Hualien County. It depicts the daily dining scenes of Makota\u2019ay, the collective fishing and feasting (pakelang) that follows weddings, funerals, and celebrations, and the annual sea worship ceremony (misacepo\u2019). The exhibition addresses the current issue of marine resource depletion.<br>In the coastal Amis language, \u201cadihay ko foting\u201d means \u201ca lot of fish\u201d and carries the blessing of an abundant catch. By exploring the traditional gathering culture of indigenous peoples and contemporary environmental restoration efforts, the exhibition invites viewers to reflect on how we can protect the future of the ocean.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/beitouhss-529-2048x1365.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3532\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Seawater exhibit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/beitouhss-530-2048x1365.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3533\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditional seafood cuisine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/beitouhss-531-2048x1365.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3534\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Wooden fish exhibit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/beitouhss-532-2048x1365.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3536\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A small amphitheater. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/beitouhss-533-2048x1365.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3535\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>More ocean exhibits including a fish trap. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/beitouhss-534-2048x1365.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3537\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Shells on display. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/beitouhss-535-2048x1365.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3538\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>More displays talk about how ecological conservation is embedded in Indigenous culture.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading3503_c2928d-ac, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading3503_c2928d-ac[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading3503_c2928d-ac\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading3503_c2928d-ac mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading3503_c2928d-ac[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading3503_c2928d-ac\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading3503_c2928d-ac wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading3503_c2928d-ac\">Be sure to check out our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/beitou-hot-springs-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">full guide to Beitou here.<\/a><br>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/taipei-museum-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our Taipei Museum Guide here.<\/a><br>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/travel-guide-to-taipei\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our full guide to Taipei here.<\/a><br>You can also check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/staging.rersczyr.a2hosted.com\/the-ultimate-travel-guide-to-taiwan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">full travel guide to Taiwan here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ketagalan Culture Center is an exhibition hall located in the Beitou District of Taipei City.
