Beitou District, Taipei City｜Beitou Museum

Direction: Take MRT to Beitou Station (not Xinbeitou, as it would be harder to get a seat on the connecting bus), via exit 1 to the bus station and take bus #230 (get off at 北投文物館) or S25/小25 (get off at 幽雅路35號 stop) + 2-3min short walk - I wish they can add this info to their website. I came here for the recent exhibition on Chinese porcelain exports-ware, while they have a permanent exhibition as well. There is a restaurant (apparently quite famous) which should require prior reservation but could save you NT$120 admission ticket per person. Visit their website for other activities and facilities available. Overall a nice place to visit and be part of your day-trip to Beitou or during your stay in one of the many hotel or hot-spring resorts nearby.

Love the tranquility and peace of this museum. The place is very lovely, and zen. Almost like a Japanese style garden. There is a sweet coffee shop.

Understanding the history of Beitou. It’s actually used to be a Onsen Hotel and now became a museum.
