There are some machines, like the record players down below, which were used by specialists. Seeing things that were used in the past makes people very nostalgic.

Those things were basically all damaged during demolitions, so it’s impressive that he could acquire them intact.
The collector is none other than Chou Jung-tang, whose restaurant has been recommended by the Michelin guide for four consecutive years. When he isn’t making delicious food, he fills his time with collecting antiques.

Antique collector
All these things inspire nostalgia in us Taiwanese, so I just kept collecting and collecting. I always say it’s like having cancer. There’s no cure, and the more you collect, the more it grows.
These drawers play music when opened, which Chou says is an old anti-theft technique. This museum of Taiwanese artifacts has thousands of antiques, including many kinds of carts and daily essentials.

I prefer to collect things that Taiwanese people used for business and tools for daily life. If I can collect it, I feel very happy.
People need to arrange a time to visit the museum, limiting the amount of people in the space at once. Here, people can catch a glimpse into the past and reminisce about the old times in Taiwan.
