The Museum of Jade Art (MoJA; traditional Chinese: 瑩瑋藝術翡翠文化博物館; simplified Chinese: 莹玮艺术翡翠文化博物馆; pinyin: Yíngwěi Yìshù Fěicuì Wénhuà Bówùguǎn) was an art museum about jade art in Zhongshan District, Taipei, Taiwan.[2] It claimed to be the first museum in the world dedicated to jade art.[citation needed]
