Located in the alleys of Tianmu, Taipei, there’s a children's art space designed specifically for kids — the “SoHo Children’s Art Museum.” In addition to eight themed exhibition spaces, it also features children’s creative works and youth solo exhibitions. Established in 2003, it is Taiwan’s first children’s art museum.

One of the themed exhibition spaces features a colorful floral tile wall located at the entrance of the museum. It was created collectively by nearly a thousand students from across Taiwan, with each student contributing a completely unique tile design, resulting in a vibrant and diverse retro floral tile wall.

Most of the themed exhibition spaces are located inside the museum, including the “Ancient Egyptian Culture” area, where the walls are covered with murals reminiscent of those in pyramids — featuring Anubis, Horus, the sun god, hieroglyphics, and more, all exuding an air of Egyptian mystique.

There is also the “Japanese Ukiyo-e” area, which incorporates works by several ukiyo-e masters. The space primarily showcases realistic paintings depicting daily life during Japan’s Edo period.

The “Light and Color – Monet’s Lotus Pond” exhibition space uses varying light to create changes in color, allowing visitors to experience the lotus pond in Monet’s famous painting from his garden in Giverny across different seasons, weather conditions, and times of day.
