Mesmerised by the indigenous tribe, he headed back to the mountains with his dancers to learn the ancient Bunun chants (recognised as a Cultural Heritage in Taiwan), their culture, and how to survive in the mountains. 

With blessings from the Bunun elders, the Bulareyaung Dance Company gives you a glimpse of their culture through dance, allowing you to reconnect with nature and tradition.
