【Highlights】
New Taipei City Art Museum
Designed by the renowned architect Yao Renxi, the museum draws inspiration from the concept of a "modern art museum emerging from a field of reeds." Its exterior exudes a modern feel while incorporating local characteristics. Within the park, there are also several art installations inspired by elements from Yingge, creating a balance between aesthetics and leisure. The New Taipei Art Museum, along with the nearby Yingge Ceramics Museum and Sanxia Old Street, forms an artistic enclave, making it the most beautiful art park in northern Taiwan.
Black Jade Polishing Experience + Old Street Art Gallery Visit
Yingge, originally developed around the ceramics industry, has seen the infusion of art and craftsmanship, enriching the artistic culture and making it a significant art hub in Taiwan. The Taiwan Black Jade produced in eastern Taiwan, transformed into artistic pieces like tea sets and Buddha statues through the skilled hands of carving masters. Join a guided tour to learn about the unique features of these artworks.
DIY Black Jade Polishing
Polish a piece of black jade by yourself, gradually revealing the luster of the jade from the raw form in your hands. Create a hanging ornament. The far-infrared rays emitted by the ink jade itself alter the surrounding magnetic field. When worn, it allows you to exude a unique charm.
