Before You Book the National Palace Museum: Every Cost, and What's Worth It
Taipei's National Palace Museum holds one of the world's greatest collections of Chinese imperial art, including the Jadeite Cabbage and the Meat-shaped Stone. Entry is affordable; the cost that matters is the tour-group crowd around the most famous pieces. There's the adult ticket, reseller tickets with audio guides, the Taipei Fun Pass and tours. Most of them sound worth paying for. You don't need the most expensive one to have a great visit. In this guide we walk through what each option costs, what you really get, and how to choose the right time.
