The Taiyuan Asian Puppet Theatre Museum (traditional Chinese: 台原亞洲偶戲博物館; simplified Chinese: 台原亚洲偶戏博物馆; pinyin: Táiyuán Yàzhōu Ôuxì Bówùguǎn) was a museum of puppet theatre in Datong District, Taipei, Taiwan. It aimed to preserve and promote traditional Asian puppet culture and to foster interaction between local and international puppet troupes.^[2]
