A Gigantic World of Miniatures, Full of Wonders!

From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was transported into a realm where the tiniest details hold the biggest surprises. The exhibits at this museum are nothing short of spectacular.

It was like rediscovering beloved tales from my childhood, but in the most whimsical and magical way possible. The attention to detail in these miniature worlds is mind-boggling. You have to look closely to spot all the hidden treasures and tiny surprises tucked away in every nook and cranny.

Read moreWe think it's worth the 250 Taiwan $. 50% off 65 years old and older. Better to buy a City Pass that will have several Museums and other attractions. But I just walked in and paid for my discounted ticket.
It's a collection of different-scale buildings and miniature people but static/doesn't move. Unlike Miniture Wonderland in Hamburg, which was generally customized in about one scale size and with moving trains and cars. This exhibit was a collection made by different craftsmen, in different sizes with mainly a European and American flavor.
They also had Fairytale themes that were easily recognizable like Alice in Wonderland, Snow White, etc... Beautifully made and encased in acrylic or glass cases.
Some were doll houses with opening back doors to reveal the rooms of the house. I like the detailed ship.
There was also a vintage robot toy collection.
The place was one floor and wheelchair ♿️ accessible. Went around for maybe 90+ minutes. Bought some stuff at their store.
Willing to go back but will visit the rest of Taipei first.
BTW, there's no flash photography, so some photos need...

The museum appears to be a sort of labour of love in some ways, as it comes across as slightly amateurish, but not necessarily in a bad way, just a bit less polished. The collection of miniatures is mostly set out around individual displays behind glass that are centred around miniature houses, although there are individual displays early on with toy robots and other dolls, all collected in loose themes.
It was a bit bigger than I expected, although you could easily cover the whole trip in 30-40 minutes. There’s also a decent gift shop at the end.
At NT$250 I would say it’s a little overpriced, but if you really like miniature houses it may be ok. Personally I was hoping it would have more extensive miniature setups, with a model railway, or streets,...
