Penghu Living Museum, Cultural heritage museum in Magong City, Taiwan.
Penghu Living Museum is a multi-story building in Magong that exhibits local history through objects and displays. It covers traditional crafts, maritime trade, and how people lived on the island.
The museum grew out of a university research project that led to its construction and opening. It was established to document and preserve knowledge about island life.
The displays show traditional fishing methods and everyday objects that reveal how people adapted to island life. These items reflect the values and daily rhythm of the community.
The building provides information in multiple languages, with QR codes throughout that offer additional details about the displays. Visitors should allow adequate time to explore the exhibitions carefully.
A large illuminated teapot marks the entrance and serves as the building's signature landmark. The roof takes on a wave-like shape that subtly references the island's maritime connection.
