Entering "THE Doraemon Exhibition Taipei 2023" at the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall is like returning to childhood, and those familiar scenes and characters instantly bring back full memories. As soon as you enter the venue, you can see the huge shape of Doraemon, which makes people happily pick up the camera and take pictures. Each area in the exhibition hall reproduces classic scenes, and there is also a prop experience area, making people feel like they are Nobita or Shizuka, traveling in the world of Doraemon. Not only was it visually satisfying, the sound and interactive design of the exhibition also made me feel particularly warm. When you hear Doraemon's signature sound effects, the familiar melody makes people smile unconsciously. Especially when I saw Doraemon’s various magical props on display, I really wanted to experience the magical effect of the “any door”. The entire exhibition is not only a reminiscence, but also allows people to relive the simple happiness that Doraemon brought us. In the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, this touch is particularly real and is definitely worth experiencing again. #itineraryshare #100 Ways to Travel #indooractivity

I had the good fortune to encounter the Tim Burton's World of Imagination exhibition when I visited Taipei. It was showcased on the first floor of the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall in Exhibition Room No. 1. The World of Imagination exhibition first debuted at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 2009, and since then it has toured the world, including stops in Japan and Korea. This is its first time in Taiwan! The venue is divided into 10 sections, displaying over five hundred pieces of work. Tim Burton's style is whimsical and bizarre, with a cute yet strange approach. In his works, one can see the juxtaposition of comedy and fear, a playful technique that leaves a lasting impression. It was truly an eye-opening experience. 🥹
