    ★★★★★11 months ago

    A welcoming museum that speaks to the unique and common elements among the 10 most common religions on earth. The museum's unusual layout, with each area of its two stories carefully crafted with meaning and purpose, helps provide a rare and contemplative nature to the entire experience. I highly recommend visiting.

    A small but very nice, educational, and informative museum, particularly on the impact and influence of various world religions on Taiwanese society. Worth the 15 minute walk from the Yongan Market MRT Station.
