Beitou Plum Garden, Historic building and cultural heritage monument in Beitou District, Taiwan.

The Beitou Plum Garden features a two-story residence combining Japanese and Western architectural styles with wooden floors and large windows throughout the structure.

Built in the late 1930s as a summer retreat, the building later became the residence of Chinese calligrapher Yu Youren in the 1950s and received historical status in 2006.

The museum displays calligraphy works by Yu Youren and hosts regular musical events, contributing to the preservation of artistic traditions in Taipei.

Located east of Xinbeitou Station on the Taipei Metro, visitors must remove their shoes before entering the building to protect the polished wooden floors.

The ground floor contains an air raid shelter constructed with steel rods and reinforced concrete, reflecting the architectural adaptations of its time.
