It became a tourist attraction only because back in 2006 the chief executive of Chiayi County invited the museum to open to the public as part of the Dragon-Boat Festival celebrations. They ended up drawing 50,000 visitors in nine days, and haven't closed their doors since!
2006 年他們受嘉義縣長卓伯源之邀，配合端午嘉年華活動、開放給民眾參觀，結果 9 天湧進 5 萬人次，之後大門就再也沒關過了！
