Expo Dome, Exhibition building in Zhongshan District, Taipei, Taiwan.
Expo Dome is an exhibition building in Taipei's Zhongshan District with distinctive petal-shaped roof sections and integrated skylights throughout its structure. The interior contains spacious halls designed to accommodate various exhibitions and large-scale events.
The complex was built in 2010 as part of the Taipei International Flora Exposition and designed as a permanent cultural venue. Since its opening, it has become a major location for large exhibitions and public events in Taiwan.
The venue hosts rotating exhibitions and large gatherings where visitors and locals experience contemporary art and cultural events. This role makes it a center for cultural activity in the northern part of the city.
The site is easily accessible by metro, especially through exit 1 of Yuanshan Station. Visitors should plan to arrive during regular hours and check the calendar beforehand, as the space sometimes closes for event transitions.
The structure uses steel plates instead of concrete in its construction, allowing for potential disassembly and reuse while reducing environmental impact. This innovative building method is uncommon for structures of this size and reflects a sustainable approach.
