National Palace Museum
Calligraphy. Go with an inquisitive mind. Enjoy the pretentious interpretations but marvel at the craftsmanship.
Manuscripts. Inspirational even for science fans. Galileo. Vesalius. Ptolemy. Wide ranging. Myth-busting viz history of (Gutenberg) printing.
Ceramics. Finally a framework for Ming and Qing. Some exquisite pieces. Would have liked a piece on commerce.

Museum of the History of Catalonia
Given this much history, no surprise it’s huge. Includes excellent English translations. Great location. Take a break at 1881 rooftop resto upstairs overlooking the harbor. Artistically done while still accurate and thorough.
