Mother's Day falls in May, a time when children express their gratitude to Ma. It was also in May, 2016 when the Miaoli Hakka Cultural Park celebrated its 4th year anniversary. Tung flowers happened to bloom late this year and their white blossoms decorated the Park beautifully, while the lively anniversary celebration activities attracted many people and their mothers to tour the Park, giving themselves the most precious memories. |
Held at 10 on the morning of May 7, the opening ceremony was ushered in by a children’s dancing troupe. The kids dressed themselves up like fairies and flied among the Tung flowers. Their lovely gesture cheered the audience overwhelmingly. To celebrate the birthday of the Park, the organizers prepared a large red balloon to symbolize the red egg that Hakka people eat for their birthday according to the tradition. When the red balloon opened, rising slowly were many colorful balloons in the shape of creative birthday cakes. This presentation stunned the audience. In the afternoon, the ultra-popular puppet theater from Pingtung Liudui Park performed a Hakka drama "Kid Ducks Looking for Parents.” The puppet show attracted an overwhelming number of crowds and also brought the first-day anniversary events to a resounding successful ending. |
Well known far and wide, the Miaoli Hakka Cultural Park has drawn over 4.11 million visitors in the past four years since its opening. In the recent years, the Park not only continues to deepen its own hardware and software for Hakka-village sightseeing but also devotes to the promotion of sightseeing network for central Taiwan. Now, the Hakka Hospitality Garden of Miaoli Hakka Cultural Park, the Twin Peak Mountain Skywalk and Garden of Tung Flowers have become famous hotspots to appreciate Tung flowers. The Park has not only effectively attracted tourists to Miaoli but also helped bring in business opportunities for the local industries. In addition, the Park provides a stage for the Hakka arts groups to hone their skills and for the general public to better appreciate the beauty of Hakka culture and performing arts. |
The series of anniversary activities were held at the outdoor ladder plaza. In addition to the above-mentioned first events, there were also other three keynote concerts, held on May 8 (Sun), May 14 (Sat), and May 15 (Sun), respectively. Performers included Yeh Yu-ting, Lucky7, Chen Zheng-han, TOP1 Idol Man, Luo Wen-yu, Xu Shi-hui, Jessica Luo, and so on and so forth. Many people attended the shows together with their family and enjoyed themselves very much. |
