Still a good place to visit even if the ticket price is a little bit high, especially for those who appreciate miniature art or candy toys. Not to mention that it's the only miniature museum in Taipei.

Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Pocket Museum is a museum dedicated to the collection of pocket art. There are many pocket treasures at home and abroad in the museum. When the curator Lin Wenren and his wife traveled to Amsterdam, they were attracted by each piece of finely crafted and lifelike pocket art. After that, they began to collect all kinds of pocket art, and there is now a museum. Pocket art originated from the German court in the 16th century. It was originally a gift between the royal families. It was strictly scaled down and made popular in Europe and North America after it entered the folk. Walking into the pocket museum is like stepping into a time tunnel, with Tudor-style buildings, Victorian mansions, street scenes of medieval Europe, Baroque period buildings... The exhibits look small and exquisite, beautiful, and the images are even more realistic. The treasure of the town hall "Rose Mansion" is a large-scale doll house work. The author Mr. Reginald Twigg spent 3 years to complete the production. After the work was published, it was also recognized by NutshellNews, an international authoritative pocket art magazine.

However, the relevant discounts may also be cancelled after the new card is no longer issued. There are micro scenes of various themes in the museum, which are vivid and quite ornamental. There is no bathroom in the library. You can't eat or drink. If you go to the door again, you will stamp it on your hand. With the stamp, you can go in and out many times. Export has to sell the assembly of micro-scene widgets for sale, interested in buying their own furnishings.
Dollhouse, these pocket houses were invented by the German nobles, and the first purpose was that the nobles wanted their daughters to understand the structure of the house and what work they had in their daily life through these models, so that they could effectively direct the servants to work. There are several exhibits ingenious, say it separately: Figure 2, the first collection. Figure 34, Cinderella, there is a 45-degree glass inside, which becomes a mirror when illuminated, reflecting another scene. Figure 56, the same way, the mirror has a person inside when illuminated. Figure 7, each model is not a thin piece, you can see the room inside through the door. Figure 8, usually the model is 1:12, this is 1:120, the most pocket-sized in the whole hall.

It is said to be the only pocket museum in Asia, and don't miss it when passing by Taipei. In the underground of an office building, the instructions are clearly marked and it is very convenient to find it. All are pocket landscapes collected from all over the world, there are buildings, fairy tales, and some collections can be messy. There is a small exhibition hall at the exit to introduce the process of production, and there are various accessories for hand-made after the visit. It is highly recommended to visit.
I found this museum by accident, but it was really a surprise. The museum is on the basement floor of the building. There is a ticketing place at the door. NT$200 and NT$20 have a stamped passport. You can collect 14 different seals in the museum. The buildings in the museum are made in accordance with a certain proportion, the characters smile, the building bricks and tiles, all made very delicate and vivid, can be seen the intention of the producer. It is said that this private museum is also the creative after the boss and the proprietress traveled around the world. The Royal Military Parade and Roman relics are really spectacular, which I like more. There are also Disney's Snow White, Alice in Wonderland, etc.
