#National Palace Museum-Shilin District, Taipei City

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 The National Palace Museum is located in Shilin District, Taipei City. The Palace Museum was completed in October 1965. Its exterior is a classical Chinese palace-style building. The first to third floors are exhibition spaces, and the fourth floor is a rest teahouse "Sanxiting". The museum's collection of carefully selected cultural relics includes paintings, calligraphy, books, documents, ceramics, bronzes, jades, curios, textiles, Neolithic Age, etc., spanning thousands of years, with a total of nearly 700,000 cultural relics. The National Palace Museum is a museum that many foreign tourists visit when they come to Taiwan. The most treasured item in the museum is the "Jadeite Cabbage", which is a must-see. This area is often crowded with people. In addition, the Palace Museum also exchanges and exhibits works in each other's collections with well-known foreign museums and art galleries. In order to respond to the concept of "balancing the north and the south, and enriching culture equally" and to ease the crowds at the National Palace Museum in Taipei, the Southern Branch of the National Palace Museum was later established in Taibao City, Chiayi County to continue to provide tourists with a higher quality exhibition space.
