YM Oceanic Culture and Art Museum

The YM Oceanic Culture and Art Museum (traditional Chinese: 陽明海洋文化藝術館; simplified Chinese: 阳明海洋文化艺术馆; pinyin: Yángmíng Hǎiyáng Wénhuà Yìshùguǎn) or Yang Ming Oceanic Culture and Art Museum (OCAM) is a museum about oceanic culture and art in Ren'ai District, Keelung, Taiwan.

History The museum building was originally constructed in 1915 during the Japanese rule of Taiwan as the property of Nippon Yusen. After the handover of Taiwan to China in 1945, the building was taken over by the China Merchants Bureau. The building was renovated in 2003 and opened as the YM Oceanic Culture and Art Museum in 2004.
