Taiyuan Asian Puppet Theatre Museum, Puppet theatre museum in Datong District, Taipei, Taiwan

The museum held more than 10,000 artifacts related to puppet theater, including glove puppets, shadow puppets, string puppets, and water puppets from Asia.

The institution began as TTT Puppet Centre in 2000, later became Lin Liu-hsin Puppet Theatre Museum in 2005, and operated until its closure in 2019.

The museum served as an educational center for Asian puppet traditions, presenting regular performances and exhibitions that highlighted different regional styles.

The building stood within walking distance from Beimen Station on the Taipei Metro, making it accessible for local visitors and international tourists.

Director Robin Ruizendaal, an authority on Asian puppet theater, published a comprehensive book featuring 300 photographs of Asian theater puppets in 2009.
