"Mutual culture is the biggest tie across the straits and promoting cultural exchanges between the two is our duty," said Fung Mingchu, deputy director of Taipei Palace Museum.
In Taipei last October, the two museums held their first formal cooperative exhibition for 60 years.
A large number of treasures from the Forbidden City were taken to Taiwan by the Kuomintang at the end of the Chinese Civil War (1946-50) and were reunited at the exhibition.
Soon after the event, the museums organized their first symposium in November last year, discussing the life and contribution of Yongzheng emperor Qing Shizong (1678-1735).
The third symposium is scheduled to be held in Taipei next year with the exact time and topic still to be determined.
