National Taiwan Museum

We enjoyed our stop by this museum! This museum became an unexpected stop on our trip to Taipei and we are happy we dropped by. This museum has English writing in every exhibit. There are two museum buildings that you get entrance into with your NT$30 ticket. There is a lot of Taiwan history in this museum, both about the people of Taiwan and the natural history. The first floor includes an exhibit about Rhinoceros skeletons that were found on the island. The museum has a lot of taxidermy to show the many animals that live on Taiwan, some of them are quite old. The layout and design of how the displayed native plants, animals and insects is well thought out and beautiful. There is also an exhibit with puppets from different parts of Eastern Asia. This is where I found the cool drawing of Darth Vader. The architecture and stone work in the main building (within the park) is very cool. Lots of marble in different colors and tall columns reaching up to a ceiling with stained glass. The second building, across the street from the park, is an old bank. The exhibits include many about the bank, and a large room with dinosaur skeletons and prehistoric history.

Beautiful architecture and well-curated exhibits! Great mix of history, nature, and culture. The building itself is already worth a visit. Calm and educational spot — perfect for a weekday escape from the city buzz

In my opinion, it’s a cool museum. They exhibit fossils of some prehistoric mammals, along with many displays of animals that still exist today. There are also interesting artifacts related to Taiwan's history and some cool statues throughout the museum. The layout is also nice and easy to explore. I recommend visiting on weekdays to avoid the crowds. The admission price is very reasonable too—$30 for adults and $15 for students.

The museum is much smaller than I imagine. You can spend 2-3 hours to explore the whole exhibition there. I love all the displays as they are interactive and easy to understand.

This musuem focus on a good insight depth of all things Taiwan, from its animal species to the cultural tribes and even natural elements that you can find in Taiwan. The children section offers interactive fun for the kids to enjoy and learn. Definitely a nice family outing to soend for a weekend. There’s a promotion now and I got a bonus with this ticket, I get to visit the another museum just across the street. It’s definitely worth a visit when you visit Taipei.

Went for level 1 to level 3 floors of exhibitions. Showcasing rich cultures of Taiwan with audio visual details of its history and journey. Washrooms are easily accessible and floors can be accessed by stairs or lift. Air conditioned museum. Entrance fee of $30 NTD Taiwan dollars for foreigners payment from counters prior entry. Souvenir shops near exits of museums. Would recommend taking a scroll in this museum for tourists.

Visited Wednesday afternoon; there weren't many people inside. The museum was easy to navigate due to its good layout. Finding certain items during the treasure hunt was challenging, but I would still recommend using their prepared materials. Just scan a QR code displayed in the lobby upon entering, and you can choose your tour type; the treasure hunt takes about 60–80 minutes. Also, the entrance fee is worthwhile, as you can also visit the Natural History Branch using the ticket purchased here.

National Taiwan Museum is a must-see when you’re in Taipei. Although it is not free (the ticket is worth NTD 150), the cultural immersion will give you more than what you’ve expect in Taiwan. From its historical story, endemic floral and fauna (plus insects), the Taiwanese colorful lineage - these are the exciting information you will experience upon entering the museum. It also has rest rooms from every corner. Just book your ticket early, its last call is until 4:30PM only.
