Taiwan, Japan and South Korea are alike in so many ways, they are inter-influenced in some ways, be it fashion related, trick eyes or novelty museums. The Miniature Museum in Taipei is one to awe for. If you like cute and mini items, you will enjoy this trip. There couldn't be possibly enough time to go through all the little cute displays!
I don't think I've ever seen anything like this. They have a great collection of miniatures, most of them are of houses or living room interiors meticulously recreated in great detail. Lots of fun to see and a great way to spend a couple hours in Taipei if the weather is bad.
Is this place bizarre? Yes. Creepy? A little bit. One of the most fun hours I spent in Taipei? Absolutely. After going down a bunch of steps, deep into the basement of an office building, you’ll find this gem of a museum, filled with dollhouses and miniature scenes — historic and, well, total fantasy. It’s fun and great for kids or adults with a sense of whimsey.
The miniature museum in Taipei is world-famous. The creators of miniature art are really striving for perfection. Small pianos that are scaled down several times can also be played according to the same reduced small scores. Small rooms can be placed in smaller rooms. There are miniature dishes on the furniture and even the small dining table. It makes people feel like they have entered the Lilliputian Country.
The amazing thing about the Pocket Museum is that many semi-mechanical things that are reduced by multiples can still be used. If the subjects of the Lilliputian Kingdom come here, it is estimated that they can survive in this pocket environment.
