Chengdu Museum
The Chengdu Museum is a modern museum showcasing over 200,000 cultural relics that trace the history of Chengdu from ancient Shu civilization to modern times. Opened in 2016, its exhibits include famous shadow puppets, exquisite lacquerware, and artifacts highlighting the city’s legacy as a hub of Sichuan culture. The museum stands near Tianfu Square, serving as a key institution for preserving and presenting Chengdu’s rich heritage.
I’m Not a Fat Tiger
“I’m Not a Fat Tiger” is a whimsical public sculpture of a cartoonish, chubby tiger located in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Created by Taiwanese artist H.H. Hsu, the installation was part of the 2022 Taiwan Lantern Festival and is intended to be a playful and friendly mascot that brings joy to viewers. Its humorous name and approachable design challenge traditional, more ferocious depictions of tigers, making it a popular photo spot and a symbol of lighthearted public art.
