The first and most important stop on any visitor’s travel itinerary should be the National Palace Museum. This award-winning museum has over 700,000 Chinese Imperial artifacts and is one of the largest collections of its type in the world.It’s located in Shilin in a wonderfully lush setting and features a beautiful garden park. The vast majority of the artifacts originally came from the Forbidden City in Beijing, moving to Taiwan along with the Republic of China government during the Chinese Civil War.
