Reading ancient books to get a glimpse into the secrets of the body - The Palace Museum's [Body Performance] Medical Books Special Exhibition

At the National Palace Museum in Taipei, a special exhibition "Body Performance" is quietly on display, focusing on the ancient Chinese understanding and record of the human body. From the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine to the illustrated medical books of the Ming and Qing dynasties, this is not just a book on medical treatment, but also an exploration of body knowledge, culture and aesthetics. The exhibition area uses ancient books with pictures and texts to show how the ancients viewed the operation of internal organs, the circulation of qi and blood, and even knowledge such as female pregnancy and menstrual cycle. You can also see illustrations of health-preserving techniques such as "guiding" and "qigong", making the human body an object to be viewed and interpreted, which is full of thoughts and beauty. This is not just a medical exhibition, but also a dialogue window between the history of thought and the history of culture. 📍 Location: Taipei Shilin District [National Palace Museum] #Taipei Palace Museum #Body Performance #Ancient Medical Books #Chinese Medicine Culture #Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine #Cultural Exhibition #Ancient Wisdom #Palace Exhibition #Taipei Art and Culture Tour #Body Aesthetics #July Good Places 2025
