The National Taiwan Museum was founded in 1908 and is a museum with a long history in Taiwan. The museum is located in the 228 Peace Park in Zhongzheng District, Taipei City. The architectural style is a fusion of classical and modern, and it is one of the few cultural assets in Taiwan that has preserved the complete architectural style of the Japanese colonial period. The museum has long been committed to the collection and display of natural history, anthropology and Taiwan history, and is an important window for understanding Taiwanese culture. The Taiwan Museum has a rich collection of natural specimens, including mammals, birds, insects, minerals, and plant specimens. Through the carefully curated permanent exhibition area, the public can learn about Taiwan's diverse geological features and ecological environment. It is an important base for school nature courses and parent-child education. The museum also actively preserves and displays Taiwan's historical development, with exhibits covering the culture of indigenous peoples, the history of Han Chinese immigration, daily necessities during the colonial period, and changes in modern society. These exhibitions help visitors gain a deeper understanding of the historical background and cultural integration of Taiwan's diverse ethnic groups. In addition to the main museum, the Taiwan Museum also has branches such as the Railways Park, Paleontology Museum, and Nanmen Museum, covering railway culture, paleontology fossils, and the history of Qing Dynasty city gates. Each branch has its own characteristics and is connected to each other, allowing visitors to fully understand Taiwan from different perspectives. The museum regularly organizes guided tours, lectures, parent-child workshops and cultural lectures to promote public education and cultural participation. Whether it is a school group visit, a family holiday trip, or an in-depth personal exploration, you can gain a wealth of knowledge and inspiration from it. The Taiwan Museum is not just an exhibition space, but also a part of Taipei's urban memory. It has witnessed Taiwan's cultural evolution over a century, and also symbolizes the important value of preserving and inheriting local history. Walking through it is not just visiting a museum, but also a cultural journey across time and space.
