Petite Joongang Family Museum is a family-owned museum that showcases the antiquities of Oriental medicine, as practiced by a local family for three generations over 90 years in the city of Daegu, a city known for its 350-year-old medicinal herb market. The tools used by the family including scales, medicine bowls, prescriptions and manuscripts of traditional medicine tell the history of Oriental medicine in Korea as well as the family's dedication to treatment using the traditional herbal medicine practice. The museum serves its visitors with healthy Oriental medicine tea, while the living family members offer free medical consultation.
