The story base of Huang Jinshan City: New Taipei City Gold Museum
The Gold Museum (Gold Museum) located in Shuinandong, Ruifang District, New Taipei City, is Taiwan's first outdoor museum with the theme of "Mining Culture". The museum area was originally the site of the Jinguashi Mine during the Japanese colonial period. Today, complete mining facilities and living settlements are preserved, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the history of miners and the prosperity of the gold mine.
Whether it is family teaching, cultural free travel, photography or a half-day trip combined with Jiufen Old Street, Gold Museum is a mountain town attraction with great intellectual and tourist value.
Highlights of Gold Museum
Gold Pavilion and Mineral Exhibition: Introducing the history of gold mining in Taiwan, you can view gold foil, ore and gold nuggets up close, and you can even touch a piece of real gold with your own hands!
Benshan Fifth Tunnel Experience: Wearing a helmet and entering the simulated tunnel is a favorite educational experience for parents, children and students.
Four consecutive Japanese-style dormitory buildings: retaining Japanese-style wooden buildings and traditional life styles, it is a must-visit for photography and history buffs.
Crown Prince's Chalet × Breathtaking views of mountains and seas: In the past, it was a pavilion visited by the Japanese royal family. Now it is an aesthetic field that combines art, architecture and nature.
