Taipei Museums and Parks (Part I)

The parks and museums educate and entertain us; the spirit of hidden and visible ancestors inspired us to make societal progress constantly, hopefully with accelerated speed.

Taipei as a large metropolitan global city mixes modern themes and deep historical traditions; charming hills and clear lakes; broad roads, narrow streets, and deep alleys; educational museums and entertaining parks

Taipei National Museum, the Dinosaur Museum, and the neighboring 228 Peace Park: On the second day here, I visited the Taipei National Museum, the Dinosaur Museum, and the neighboring 228 Peace Park near the train station. There is a quality collection of antiques, watercolor paintings nature/environmental science displays, local costumes/traditions, ancient currency, economic development history, and kid education sessions. The art pieces are precious and the display layout is unique. The Cross Street Dinosaur Museum is also educational about biodiversity and historical variations with vivid models, sample pieces, and pictures.

When I walked in the neighborhood park, I truly feel stepping into a harmonious environment with cursive paths and quiet ponds, there were blooming flowers and strong trees, bridges, and a pavilion. People went there to do exercises, read newspapers, sip teas, or listen to music. It’s one of the most popular city parks in Taipei.

Zhong Shan Park: I visited Zhong Shan Park located in the city center of Taipei, near the city government buildings. Mr Sun Zhongshan was a founding father of democracy, advocating “Universal Love” and three democratic approaches system, democratic rights, democratic experience, and processes, etc about a century ago. He was respected by different generations of Asians in China, Taiwan, and worldwide. There are many parks and roads named Zhongshan to memorize him in different places, especially in Taipei, Nanjing, and lots of large cities in China.

There are historical museums and libraries inside the park. Unfortunately, they were not open on that day. There were spacious squares with fountains sculptures, and plants. Walking in such a green, quiet space near the city center refreshed my energy and appreciation of the breadth and depth of our ancestors' philosophy. By following our ancestors' principles, no wonder the Taiwanese elected their female leader a couple of years ago; Hong Kong and Nanjing elected the female top leader a while ago. The parks and museums educate and entertain us; the spirit of hidden and visible ancestors inspired us to make societal progress constantly, hopefully with accelerated speed.

If you appreciate viewing artwork from other nations, this museum is for you. It is the largest and possibly best collection of Chinese art. Treasures in painting, calligraphy, statues, bronzes, lacquerware, ceramics, jade, and religious relics are all included in this enormous hoard. We chose to visit Taiwan since we had never been there before, and we had a great time. Their collection of Chinese and Taiwanese art is incredibly vast and my one of the best place ever and fun sights I've ever experienced.
