The museum was actually less of a museum and more of a park with a museum at the centre. Below are some photo's from the museum itself - as you can see it is really a stunning building.
This building was originally Taipei's first water treatment plant which was constructed with the guidence of a Scottish engineer during Japanese colonisation of Taiwan.
Apparently at the time the Japanese colonised Taiwan there were a lot of problems with water bound diseases like malaria. So the Japanese constructed this building as the first ever water treatment plant in Taiwan.
The building is now a musuem which is delightfully steampunk - it also seems to be a hotspot for wedding photographs as there were two different couples having thier wedding photo's taken on this day.
