Know much about Chinese medicine?

Well, friends and I were fortunate enough to learn more about the subject as we made our way through the National Museum of Natural Science (國立自然科學博物館) in Taichung City (Taiwan) this past weekend.

Displays within the museum include alchemic concoctions, herbs, acupuncture models and needles, moxibustion, as well as reviews of important philosophies and writings. Short films appear as you meander through the exhibits highlighting aspects of Yin-Yang Theory (陰陽論 yīnyánglùn), Five Elements Theory (五行論 wǔxínglùn), Zang-fu Theory (臟腑論 zàngfǔlùn), the Meridian System (經脈論 jīngmàilùn), and so on. There’s introductory material for newer people and a lot to observe and research for anyone really interested.

It was fun… and education to boot! The models and displays we passed by are below.
