Adjacent to the Qingpu Qingtang Garden pond, it provides families with a complete half-day destination combining art experiences and outdoor nature activities.

Highlights of Taoyuan Children's Art Museum

The Children's Art Museum was established by the Taoyuan City Government Cultural Affairs Bureau, positioned as a public art venue serving children as its primary audience. The building exterior uses colorful building blocks as its design vocabulary — lively and immediately recognizable. Indoor exhibition spaces focus on interactive installations that encourage children to participate with their hands rather than simply observe. The creative studio regularly hosts children's art workshops, some of which require advance registration.

Outside, the outdoor art plaza features interactive public art installations suitable for free exploration by preschool and primary school-aged children. The museum is adjacent to Qingtang Garden, a traditional pond landscape preserved on the Taoyuan Plateau with walking trails and lawns, where parents can take children for continued outdoor activity after visiting the museum. Together they form the most complete family leisure complex in the Qingpu area.

Stroll the Qingtang Garden trailThe Qingtang Garden next to the museum preserves a traditional pond landscape with a lakeside trail, suitable for a gentle walk in nature with children after the museum visit. The lawns are open for free movement.
