Then he constructed a new building to house these artifact collections in Taipei, the capital in Taiwan. Most of artifacts collections are come from Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing courts.
People organize and manage this museum very well, as well as the artifacts collections in it.
When I was wandering around the museum, I had a feeling of emotion, to the wise of ancient Chinese, their creativity and delicate handmade. Also, I felt a little sad, because we cannot do as good as them even though we are living in the age that is developing very fast and full of high technology.
