It was wonderful to travel around Taiwan. I still remember my last trip to Taiwan.

First, I visited National Palace Museum in Taiwan. It was built in 1962. It was completed(完成) in 1965. In this museum, you can find lots of exhibitions. It is said that the museum keeps about 600,000 artworks. The workers of the museum said they changed exhibitions every three months.
