Here you will walk down ancient Stone Paths to a peaceful village and Stone Money Bank. You will visit a traditional Men’s House lined with Stone Money, which is still used today for village meetings.
Dance is a living art form in Yap providing visitors a colorful and exciting look into the culture of Yap. Dances are presented in our on site amphitheater at our Ethnic Art Village.
