The Yilan International Children's Folklore and Folkgame Festival begins on July 2. To prevent heavy traffic on National Freeway No. 5 due to large crowds, the Ministry of Transportation and Communications and Yilan County Government have introduced a public transportation discount plan. With proof of purchase such as an intercity bus or Taiwan Railways ticket, visitors can enjoy a "buy one get one free" deal on festival admission for two people. Additionally, special shuttle buses for the festival will be available, and more Taiwan Railways NT$100 express trains will be added.
