戀戀芒花思古道（第六屆草嶺古道芒花季） 2007

2007/Journey of the Nostalgic Trail
The main theme of this year was to return to the ancients. The trail was designed as an antique
passage through the Qing Dynasty two hundred years ago. Visitors stepping onto the stone trail felt
like being taken by a time machine, back into the past in just a minute. Because the festival was so
highly commented on, the administration extended the activity period for the first time: extending
the festival by one more week to early December. In addition to the regular activities from previous
years, several novel and amusing games were designed for the year. These included ‘Modeling for
Mountain Bandits’ at the Caoling Historical Trail, ‘Marching to Bandits Hideout’ where prizes were
given away to contestants, and finally a Flour Miniature Art Exhibition. More than that, the host unit
especially designed “the space-time capsule” for visitors to write messages to their loved ones and
芒花 keep inside a capsule. Those who were successful through trials by the mountain bandits had the
