Traveler reviews
Sally Clarke
★★★★★a month agoI love this place; this is how Taiwan recreates the nation. They achieve every pain from political prisoners who suffered from the white terror era. This place is so powerful. Really recommend this to anyone going to Taiwan and staying in Taipei!

★★★★★3 months agoVisiting the National Human Rights Museum was a truly powerful and unforgettable experience for me. I wasn't very familiar with the history of the White Terror before, but after walking through the prison cells and reading the exhibits, I felt much closer to the reality of that time. It is undoubtedly a significant educational site for understanding human rights and democracy. Best of all, the museum is open to the public for free, making it a highly accessible and meaningful place for everyone to visit.
