Taiwan Oil Field Exhibition Hall, Industrial museum in Gongguan, Taiwan.
The Taiwan Oil Field Exhibition Hall is a building dedicated to industrial history spread across two floors. The rooms display drilling equipment, machinery, and educational materials about oil extraction.
The building opened in 1981 to document oil extraction in this area, which began in 1861. The discovery happened when crude oil seeped into a local river and caught attention.
The exhibition shows how oil extraction shaped the lives and economy of this region. Visitors see old tools and photographs that reveal how people worked here across generations.
The visit works well when you take time for both floors and read the displays carefully. Accessibility is straightforward and the rooms are easy to navigate.
A notable feature is the proximity to Chukuangkeng, one of the world's longest-operating oil fields. Some old wells there still work actively today, showing how long this industry has shaped the area.
