National Palace Museum

The Taipei National Palace Museum is a renowned institution that houses a diverse collection of artifacts that successive emperors ruled from the Forbidden City have retained. In order to stop invaders from plundering China's national treasures during World War II, Nationalist troops took control of the most significant items. These riches were eventually transported to Taiwan by a stroke of luck.

The Taipei National Palace Museum was built in the image of a palace in Northern China. The museum is home to the largest and most priceless collection of ancient Chinese antiquities in the entire world, numbering in the hundreds of thousands of historical objects. The complete set spans 5,000 years of Chinese history and cultural development.

The museum offers literature on the museum in Chinese, English, French, German, Japanese, Spanish, and Korean. Every visitor's schedule should include a visit to the museum.
