Taiwan High Speed Rail Museum, Railway museum in Zhongli, Taiwan
The Taiwan High Speed Rail Museum is a railway museum in Zhongli dedicated to the operations and maintenance of high-speed trains. The exhibition spreads across multiple levels with detailed displays about train technology and operational procedures.
The collection began in 2003 during construction of the high-speed line when staff gathered memorabilia and documents. The museum later moved to the operational headquarters and has documented the growth of this modern rail system since then.
The museum shows how high-speed rail changed daily life for people across Taiwan and became essential for connecting cities in modern times. You can see throughout the displays how this technology shapes the way travelers move through the country today.
The museum requires advance booking and offers free entry, making it straightforward to plan a visit. The location sits within walking distance of the high-speed rail station, so arrival by public transport is convenient.
Visitors can sit in a simulator cab and experience what it feels like to operate a high-speed train firsthand. Large-scale model train sets also display the different route sections and how modern trains run across the country.
