There is such a place in Gaoping

On the way from Gaoping Railway Station to Tiefo Temple, I saw this art gallery with an artistic style. At that time, I didn't add the name of Tsai Chih Chung Art Museum to my itinerary in Gaoping, and I didn't even know that there was such a high-end art center here. It was the girl at the Tiefo Temple Cafe who told me that I could visit the art museum. I called and found out that it closed at 6 pm, so I could make it in time. The open park has an ethereal and artistic architectural design, with green plants and flickering lights. In addition to the art museum, there are also restaurants, shops, and a large parking lot. It is a new landmark that just opened in the middle of this year, with unlimited potential in the future. The entire art museum seemed to be serving our group, and the guide led us to different themed galleries. Tsai Chih Chung's comics also played a milestone role in my growth. From his "Zen Speaks", I learned about the Sixth Patriarch Huineng's direct pointing to the heart and the meaning of "go have tea". I read Zhuang Zhou's philosophy of non-action, Liezi's flying with the wind, and the "Cai Gen Tan" about the vicissitudes of life. The obscure classics were presented in humorous comics, opening the rebellious heart of a teenager. The art museum has a collection of 317 drawings, making it the world's most concentrated collection and exhibition center of Tsai Chih Chung's works. Why was it chosen to be in Gaoping? Perhaps Mr. Tsai was looking for the roots of the descendants of Emperor Yan and liked the cultural foundation here. Perhaps the Gaoping government had the vision for development, and an art museum led the new era of cultural tourism. In addition to the classic works on display, there is also a hall made into an immersive experience, with colorful lights, music, and illusions, making it fun to take photos, in line with Mr. Tsai's lifelong childlike innocence. Tsai Chih Chung fell in love with painting at the age of four and set his life goal as a teenager. In any field, if you can find your own path and work hard without distractions, you can become a master. He also studied ancient architecture, the subtle differences in each mortise and tenon structure, and Buddhist statues, the differences in each sitting posture and lotus throne, and did everything to the extreme. Behind this tenacity and persistence, there is always infinite love. Unfortunately, most of us ordinary people love to look around, love widely, and lose the qualification to be dedicated. There is no right or wrong, just enjoy your life.
