This is the Southern Branch of the National Palace Museum in Chiayi County, southern Taiwan. Just outside the museum, flock drones take flight in the dark of the night, lighting up in formation. Viewers on the ground are treated to familiar images of objects like the treasured Jadeite Cabbage from the museum’s northern branch in Taipei.

This is just one of the many things the southern branch is doing to try and attract visitors. Between June 1 and August 31 of this year, the museum offered free admission on weekends and national holidays. Residents of Chiayi can also get in for free.    [FULL  STORY]
