★★★★★a year agoReally worth to spend half day here to know the history of Beitou. The tea tasting charge extra to have one matcha tea and snacks. If you have time, also can join the free tour to know more than the explanation on the wall.

★★★★★a year agoA very calm and serene museum. Used to be a ryokan in the older days but it has been turned into a museum to preserve the history and architecture of this era. Many interesting items, well displayed and covered across various genre. Ticket priced at 120 per person. There’s also an interactive game on the projected screen. Overall highly recommended to come visit if in bei tou.
