This area is a children's educational exhibition particularly designed to correspond to the Bronze Exhibition at the National Palace Museum. The displays introduce the bronze tools and vessels used by the ancients, animal patterns on bronze items, and the musical sounds of bronze instruments. The children will also go on a fun and fascinating journey through bronze by trying out various interactive displays such as the magnet games, pattern rubbings and playing the bronze bells. |
