He is from Jiufeng and is one of the few that dedicate his time to the promotion of mining history and culture. As Mr Zeng used to work in a mining quarry and is experienced in gold metallurgy process, he is very familiar with everything about gold mining and gold metallurgy process. He has transformed level two of his own house into a gold mining museum, whereas mining tunnel and mining trolley tracks recreated on level one take visitors back to the past. Many precious gold ore, coexistence ore and related original documents are displayed here.Level two is divided into a multimedia area and a learning area with a gold panning theme. Unlike the gold panning hands-on experience provided by Museum of Gold, the gold panning exhibition here starts from the crushing of ore and ends when shinning gold dusts appear in the bottom of the riffle. Objects that help to explain metallurgy process such as gold cyanidation and gold-mercury amalgam are also displayed.Mr Zeng believes that gold mining, metallurgy and panning cannot be regarded only as jobs he has done, but his lifelong interests and something he see as his responsibility to promote.

Mei-yu Jan was born in Jiufen in 1972 and graduated from the National Keelung Maritime Vocational High School. She exhibits her ceramic works at the Imagery Ceramics Workshop on a regular basis. According to her, "The dialogue between life and experience in nature is the most value thing in art."She has a strong affection for her hometown. Now, this mountain city where she was nurtured has become her creative base and where she experiences her life of art with ceramics. Jan was a QC worker of a private enterprise and worked at the Jiufen Teahouse out of chance. At that time, the Jiufen Teahouse added ceramics to the business to fuse with the natural atmosphere of Jiufen. This encounter between teahouse and handcrafted ceramics has become first intimate contact between Jan and ceramics.Jan began her ceramic career by painting on the body of the work after biscuit firing. Next, she tried pinching. Now, she makes almost all her works with pinching. The local features of Jiufen also become the elements of her works, including the sea view, the old street, the wild flowers, the grass, the stray cats, etc; cats are the most common subject matter of her recent works.Recently, she has completed a series of ceramic lamps based on the cat. After the primary biscuit firing, Japan added to her works the shape of the pedal of Yedcensis, a famous Japanese cherry blossom in Jiufen. By integrating the hollow and under-glaze painting techniques, she has made her cat-shaped ceramic lamps with special fun and a rich texture become the focus of collectors. According to Jan, art must connect life in order to go live. Out of persistence, ceramics have become her life of art, penetrates the soul of viewers through her unique language, and embellishes the living space of collectors.

When approaching the tea museum the first thing you notice is its Fujian-style architecture, with a large circular courtyard along with long halls and round doors. In many ways, it seems like a small version of the mountain streams that are common south of the Changjiang River. The main purpose of the museum is to give visitors a chance to learn more about the tea industry by understanding its history through tea fields visits and an exhibition area. The knowledge they gain adds substance to subsequent tea culture experiences they partake on their visit to Pinglin. On the second floor is a “plant clinic” that provides local tea growers with accurate knowledge about growing techniques. Outside the courtyard gives visitors a traditional southern Chinese setting where they can go for a stroll, admire the carp pool and manmade waterfall, or sip tea in the pavilion. Behind the museum there is also an ecological park which features a tea flower forest and Taiwan’s only Matsu statue built in a tea-growing area.
