Taipei's first puppet gallery and theatre has recently opened, bringing young and old the delights of precious puppets and puppet shows.

Taipei Mayor Ma Ying-jeou held a Monkey King puppet in his hand when he officially opened the gallery and theatre.

People acting as puppets added a special touch to the ceremony and later paraded through the streets.

The gallery has over four thousand theatrical puppets.

Half of them come from the Chinese mainland.
