Different
This is an interesting and different kind of tourist sights. It was pretty empty on the day we were there at this huge place. There are several structures and areas that should be explored including the Kite Museum, the Pagoda, and the very pretty garden in the back. A good place to spend a couple of hours while in Weifang.

Yangilabu Village
This is a super place to visit. The village is extensive and has all sorts of crafts to watch being made. The Kite Factory is here. Lots of nick nacks to buy and rice paper pictures for a couple of yuan.

Deserving of more visitors
This is a new purpose-built village about 40 minutes by bus from downtown Weifang, built to highlight the arts and crafts of the area. We visited on a winter weekday and it was virtually deserted. It is huge in area, with replica temples and outbuildings which are so-so. It was only when we got to the back of the complex that it revealed its points of interest. There is an "artisan" street, where there are exhibits of the ancient crafts like kite-making, block screen printing etc. These were static displays when we visited , but I believe the artists and craftsmen demonstrate at other times - weekends ? Some of the halls, displays and museums are hidden down alleyways, so you need to look carefully. This complex needs people to make it work - artisans to demonstrate their crafts and visiitors to appreciate them. Perhaps this happens at other times of the year.
