World Traveler
When Chiang Kai-shek figured out shortly after World War II that the communists were going to take over his country, the wily old politician began crating up many of China's cultural treasures and shipping them off to Taiwan. Today much of what he stole is on display at the beautiful National Palace Museum. Attached are a few shots of the exterior of the two main buildings of the museum. We were there for a couple of hours, but it would take days to properly see and appreciate all that the museum has to offer.
Unfortunately, indoor photography was limited.
