Guangdong Hakka Museum
The Hakka people inhabit the provinces of Guangdong, Jiangxi and Fujian in the Chinese mainland, and Hong Kong SAR and Taiwan Island, as well as Southeast Asia. The Hakka and their rich culture have had a significant influence on the course of Chinese and overseas Chinese history over centuries of migrations. There are Hakka museums in many places around the world, and now the largest Hakka museum in China has opened to the public.
The Guangdong Hakka Museum, Guangdong Province's first and China's largest Hakka museum, opened on April 8 in Meizhou City, Guangdong Province.
The Guangdong Hakka Museum project involved collecting, researching and displaying the Hakka culture with an investment of 130 million yuan; and covers an area of 163.2 mu. The architectural area is 15,000 square meters. The museum is comprised of a main hall and three branch halls – Huang Zunxian Memorial Hall, University Hall, and the General Hall. The main hall is divided into five sections which emphasize five main themes that annotate the Hakka's spirit from multiple angles; vividly describe the Hakka people's five difficult migration periods in history; and display a great deal of precious relics, pictures and information visually reproducing the Hakka's traditional folk culture.
