The number of items is approximately 690,000.
It is counted among the four major museums in the world, along with the Louvre in France, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the United States, and the Hermitage Museum in Russia.
The exhibits are replaced every 3 to 6 months, and sometimes they are loaned to exhibitions both domestically and internationally, so make sure to check if the works you want to see are on display before visiting.

Explore the Unprecedented Collaboration Exhibition-‘Beauty Speaks for Itself’
Beauty Speaks For Itself, a highly anticipated exhibition, opened earlier this fall at the National Palace Museum in Taipei.
Upon entering the gallery, you will be immediately drawn to the first display case showcasing three distinct objects: a revolving openwork vase adorned with dragon and lotus motifs in yangcai enamels from the National Palace Museum, a wine-red buire de Blois (porcelain ewer) from the Musée des Arts Décoratifs with Asian-inspired designs, and a mid-20th-century Zip necklace by Van Cleef . Worth to visit!
Bringing together over 260 associated works in the immersive form of ‘tableaux,’ the exhibition takes place twice, in two different locations: from September 26 to December 29, 2024, in Taipei, then from January 23 to April 20, 2025, in Chiayi.
