Prelude:
Waves of grains from the rice fields on the Cilangasan mountain-front softly whisper, riding with the wind down the canyon along the emerald-colored ridges to the plain, where they nurture the aboriginal tribes and their families beside a creek. Here, we see the future of Sasuraratan no Pangcah.It is a place for the tribesmen to learn from and inherit their tribal culture.
Along the friendly No.193 county road, stories of aboriginal culture unfold and are piled up in stacks around the corner. The sense of literati cultivation here unveils itself, as if Spring has come visiting with its refreshing breeze. On campus, the sound of mother-tongue chanting for aboriginal disciples fills the air. Young dancers from various tribes perform in the forests, communicating with nature and the spirits of their ancestors. This corner belongs to the canyon, with its exquisite touch. Only under the holy mountain of Cilangasan could we expect for such a beautiful view. In the foreseeable future, we may witness the tracks of young hunters acquiring traditional fishery skills, setting up snares, and mastering other forms of hunting. The Sasuraratan no Pangcah is waving to us, expecting our visit to prolong her song of harvest and count the stars hanging around the moon on days when waves of grain swing in the rice fields.
Interlude:
The Tafalong glutinous rice field on the east riverbank is home to white crabs. The tribesmen work hard, seeding the soil. Wild ducks seek food and entertain themselves. The scorching sun warms the atmosphere, filling the canyon with a sense of happiness.
If you should visit this tribe, along the stroll, you may see the different lights of every country side. The Totem of Pangcah(Amis) and the wooden statues take their own corners, enjoying the breeze and sunlight around the canyon.
As you take a stroll, let go of the hustle and bustle of city life and rejoin a moment of easy pace and relaxation that belongs to a quality life. Take a bite of Tafalong Red Rice as it sweetens your heart. You’ll find he unique summer taste of the canyon on a lazy afternoon. From the fumigated taste of Red Rice, you’ll experience a touch of passion and a pleasant scent.
Now, pack up your bags! Rent a bicycle at Kuang-Fu Train Station, ride along the crisscross country roads to Tafalong, and witness the biggest tribe nestled between the canyon and the plain—the unique life of the Pangcah(Amis) aboriginal tribe.
