appreciate this common bond between Taiwan and the mainland and
the hard-won success of Chinese settlers in opening up the province
to Chinese culture, the Taiwan Provincial Government opened a
display room in its Provincial Administration Information Hall
dedicated to the history and culture of Taiwan. This exhibits
materials related to the history and culture of Taiwan from the
prehistoric period until after the retrocession in 1945, in the
form of photographs, models, charts, maps, historical objects,
multimedia displays and books, all arranged chronologically and
with accompanying explanatory text. It is our sincere hope that
this display may promote a sense of common heritage among the
people of Taiwan and encourage positive steps towards the conservation
of that heritage to the benefit of our nation, as well as furthering
understanding of the Republic of China among overseas visitors.
