Our Roots
The Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village was founded in 1986 by its current president, Jung-i Chang. Mr.
Chang’s vision was to establish a place to both preserve and teach about Taiwan’s aboriginal heritage
while, at the same time, provide a spacious venue for people to spend and enjoy their leisure time. His
family's history has long been intertwined with those of Taiwan's native aborigine cultures. It was his own
ancestor, Da-ching Chang, who negotiated with local tribal representatives to open to cultivation the area
around modern Feng-Yuan for Chinese settlers.

Mr. Chang purchased in 1982 the land on which the Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village now stands.
After four years of construction work, the Village opened its doors to the public in July 1986.

A Multifaceted, Fun-Filled Theme Park
Since first opening in July 1986, the
Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village earned
renown for its popular theme area
introducing Taiwanese aboriginal culture
and for its lush forest and beautiful
European Garden. An amusement park and
other entertainment attractions have been
added to the Village since 1992. Today, the
large numbers of completed attractions
ensure the position of the Formosan
Aboriginal Culture Village as a highly
competitive and leading edge theme park in
Taiwan. The Formosan Aboriginal Culture
Village has worked consistently and
successfully to upgrade its services and
facilities. Such efforts have won numerous
honors for the Village, including “Top
Taiwan theme park”, from government
tourism bureau.

To underscore the Village’s commitment to quality and safety, the park adopted the ISO 9002 system of
quality standards. Truly outstanding cooperation among all staff earned the village ISO 9002 certification
after only one year by the British Standard Institute (BSI) in 1998, making the Formosan Aboriginal Culture
Village one of the first parks to earn such certification.
