About

The moment you push open the door and step inside, your footsteps spread softly across the old wooden floor. Faint light flows along walls carved from concrete and stone, making you feel that the breath of past currency, vaults, and bank presidents still lingers in this space. Walking along the corridor, a vast room of currency-related equipment opens up, letting you slowly examine the weight and meaning that money has carried through the flow of time. Exhibition spaces installed throughout become a bridge linking past and present, leading visitors into the history that has come before.
