Taitung Taiwan Prehistoric Culture Museum – rich exhibits of Taiwan’s prehistoric culture

The two brothers loved museums and were unwilling to leave after viewing the entire museum within a few hours of entering. During their four-day trip to Taitung, the two brothers actually spent a whole day at the Taitung Prehistoric Museum, and they also missed the chance to see the Prehistoric Cultural Park they originally planned to visit together.

The two brothers loved museums and were unwilling to leave after viewing the entire museum within a few hours of entering. During the four-day trip to Taitung, the two brothers actually spent a whole day at the Taitung Prehistoric Museum, and they also missed the Prehistoric Cultural Park that they originally planned to visit together.

During a trip to the East a few years ago, they learned that there was a prehistoric museum in Taitung. The two of them, who like natural science and are deeply fascinated by archeology, clamored to go and see it. Unfortunately, we were following a group trip with family and friends, so no one was very interested in the museum, so it was not included in the museum. This time during our independent trip to Taitung, this place became a must-see for us.

The Taiwan Museum of Prehistory in Taitung is also the only national museum in the east. Taiwan's most important National Museum of Anthropology and Natural History focuses on the collection and educational promotion of Taiwan's prehistoric culture and Taiwan's aboriginal culture. Its foundation comes from the Beinan site in Taitung, and the Beinan site that retains archaeological sites Although the South Cultural Park and this prehistoric museum are located some distance apart, it is recommended to visit them together.

The transportation to the Museum of History is not convenient. There are few buses. Later, I found that I thought that I could just take a bus to the airport and walk to the Prehistoric Museum at the back. In fact, it is impossible to cross the airport control area to get there. Fortunately, I didn’t do this at that time!

After leaving Chenggong Town and going back to the city, we asked the B&B to take us there directly.

The souvenir shop in the museum

The museum’s tickets are discounted with the card, and you can visit Beinan Cultural Park for free.

An event to promote local specialties is being held in the museum, and the two of them are making mochi so much that their hands are sore!

Eating a pure fruit juice cone is more attractive.

Kiwit Chimei Tribe Special Exhibition

Taiwan Natural History Department

The exhibition tells the story of the birth of the island of Taiwan

Section activities The topography of Taiwan was created. When we came to Taitung, we happened to experience the Coastal Mountains and the Central Mountains created by the tectonic plate and the East Rift Valley between them. We also took the opportunity to have a good understanding of the origin of Taiwan's topography.

Taiwan has also experienced the ice age. There are many animal fossils on display here, which make people love it. The two archaeological brothers were amazed.

Various Ice Age mammals, including such large elephants

The cherry blossom salmon "frozen" in transparent acrylic is so lifelike that people thought it was real.

Prehistoric "exclusive" store - special cultural and creative exhibition

For a special exhibition with the theme of cultural creativity, the two of them completed the stacking blocks very seriously

The evolution of human beings

< p> In the downward ramp corridor between the exhibition halls, follow the path to gradually explore the evolution of human beings. You can see more "bones" here.

Interactive area in the corridor

The broken pottery pot fragments had to be put back together before they were willing to leave

Taiwan Department of Prehistory

The Beinan Culture at the Beinan Site It is one of the most important sites in Taiwan. The site is preserved in the Prehistoric Park, and the prehistoric relics are moved here for display. This is also the reason for the establishment of this exhibition hall.

Many exquisite prehistoric relics are really amazing. I can’t believe that they were created by ancient people.

An'an's accident Discovered locally, isn’t this unique jade the symbol of a prehistoric museum?

Scientific Archeology

Utilization Scientific spirit and technology are used to explain and verify the artifacts and phenomena found in archaeological discoveries. The scientific principles and more technological exhibition mode of this exhibition area are quite different from those in other exhibition areas, and there are more surprises.

Passing the broken clay pot experience area again, the two of them this time I worked hard to assemble all the clay pots before I finally left with satisfaction.

I visited until almost two o'clock before I was willing to have lunch. The restaurants in the exhibition hall were almost closed.

The staple food in the restaurant is mainly aboriginal food. When visiting aboriginal culture, you should also try their food.

In front of the garden outside the square, there is a display of the Bai Shoulian rock coffin

The Garden Plaza has a huge grassy landscape and amusement facilities

This stone maze was so interesting. No matter what the sun was, the two played hide and seek, laughing excitedly!

Tired and hot from playing, I went back to the exhibition hall to continue visiting.

Taiwan Austronesian Nationalities Department

Taiwan’s Austronesian ethnic groups have rich cultural connotations, and each ethnic group’s culture has its own characteristics.

The courses of the two brothers’ schools have a lot of emphasis on various aboriginal cultures. During our previous travels, we also came into contact with many aboriginal exhibitions and visited many towns where aborigines are the mainstay. People's culture.

The way this exhibition area displays one ethnic group and one theme made the two people more aware of the differences in the cultures of these South Island ethnic groups.

This atrium area has many facilities for children. Experience games and toys

Finally, out of boredom, we played hide-and-seek here, with adults and children playing together

After visiting the museum, I planned to visit the Beinan Cultural Park next to the train station to have a better experience. I could also go directly to the train station to take the train home, but these two Brothers were actually able to visit the Museum of History from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. We had no chance to see the Beinan Cultural Site again and went straight back to the train station.

We didn’t have a car to go from the Museum of History to the station, so we had a whimsical idea of ??walking to the airport in front of us to catch a ride. Fortunately, the museum stopped us and said we had to take a long detour to the airport, and gave us the phone number of our private driver, telling us not to yell. As expected, I was willing to pay by jumping meter. It was $210 to the station. I had to ask the locals when I got there, and the advice they gave was the most practical. ?

It took a whole day to visit an exhibition hall. Only two brothers could do it.
