Day 7 - New Taipei City Yingge Ceramics Museum

Hello everyone!

We are almost coming to the end of our learning journey in Taipei, Taiwan. Today is the last day of our trip here and before we depart from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, we visited our last destination in the itinerary – New Taipei City Yingge Ceramics Museum.
This place was opened in the year 2000, and showcases all the ceramic craftsmanship that has set Yingge apart from other towns in Taiwan for two centuries. The museum exhibits comprehensively cover the wide number of applications for which ceramics are used. The first hall features fine examples of exquisite vases, plates, and other ornaments and many of the remaining galleries are devoted to the history, production and use of ceramics.

 
We also have a chance to walk down the streets of Yingge Town and visit shops selling all kinds of ceramic articles. This also provides us with the last opportunity to get some exquisite souvenirs for our loved ones in Singapore!
