Exhibition of Koxinga (婆裟之眼 － 國姓爺足跡文物特展). Whether he was Koxinga on foreign accounts, or the Yanping King, a title bestowed on him by the Southern Ming regime, Zheng Cheng-gong (鄭成功) is a historical figure of utmost importance in the history of Taiwan. He played a vital role in the complex, tangled relationship that linked Taiwan, China and Japan in the last years of the Ming Dynasty and the early years of the Qing Dynasty. The museum's special exhibition presents a wide range of historical artifacts and documents in relation to Zheng with collections on loan from museums and private collectors in Japan, China and Taiwan, and aims to show the interaction between Taiwan and the rest of the world during the 17th to 19th centuries.
