Its elegant architecture, rich collection, and unique geographical position have made the National Taiwan Museum an important landmark in Taipei. In 1998, the Ministry of the Interior designated the museum as a National Historic Site. From the colonial-era Taiwan Governor Museum to the National Taiwan Museum today, the building has witnessed the history of Taiwan and also recorded the natural and anthropological development of this land. At the museum, visitors can witness the tracks of development and the many splendors of Taiwanese culture, geology, flora, and fauna.
