Entering Guangdong China Hakka Museum and Appreciating the Colorful Hakka Culture

2022-11-09

(The picture shows the main hall of China Hakka Museum in Guangdong) Hakka is a distinctive ethnic group of Han people, widely distributed at home and abroad, and has far-reaching influence. Meizhou, Guangdong Province, is one of the places where the Hakka people finally formed and the largest settlements, preserving typical Hakka traditional culture. At the "12th World Hakka Kinship Conference" held in 1994, Meizhou was honored as the "World Hakka Capital" and became the spiritual home to maintain the emotional identity and cultural foundation of the global Hakka people. Guangdong China Hakka Museum, located in Meizhou, was completed and opened to the public in April 2008. This is the first comprehensive museum in China that comprehensively displays the origin and development of Hakka ethnic culture and systematically collects, sorts out, studies and displays Hakka historical and folk cultural relics. It is composed of the main Hakka Museum and the branch Meizhou University President's Hall, Meizhou General's Hall, Meizhou Celebrity and Incorruptible Officials Hall, Huang Zunxian Memorial Hall, Meizhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Exhibition Hall, Meizhou Overseas Chinese Museum and Meizhou Hakka Cultural Museum Magazine. (The picture shows the blue glaze double series teapot of the Tang Dynasty's waterwheel kiln.) Tracing back to the source of Hakka, we came to the north end of Dongshan Bridge in Meizhou City. A round gate with a two-story arch structure came into sight. The gate looked like a Hakka tulou, and the golden characters "China Hakka Museum" were inscribed on it. Through the gate, you can see a well with four characters engraved on the well fence, which means that Hakka people move from the Central Plains to the south, pay great attention to the "root" and never forget the "root". In the main hall of Guangdong China Hakka Museum, there are basic displays of "Hakka people" and "Meizhou historical stories". The "Hakka people" is divided into three chapters: the origin chapter, the humanities chapter, and the soul chapter. It interprets the Hakka people at home and abroad from the geographical, blood and cultural links, and comprehensively combs the development context of the Hakka people. The "Meizhou Historical Tales" tells the formation of Meizhou Hakka and Meizhou's humanistic history in six parts, namely, "Meizhou in the Pre Qin Dynasty", "construction changes", "integration of local tourists", "formation of the Hakka capital", "historical celebrities in Meizhou", and "red land", to show the profound historical and cultural heritage of the Hakka. Walking into the hall on the first floor of the main hall, a big "formula" on the wall is very eye-catching. "Formula" is the pronoun of the first person "I" in Hakka dialect, which is a typical vocabulary of Hakka dialect. As one of the seven major Chinese dialects, Hakka dialect retains a large number of ancient sounds of the Central Plains, which is an important link to communicate with Hakkas around the world. Since the turn of the Jin Dynasty (317), the Hakka people have experienced five great migrations to avoid wars and social unrest. The "Hakka people" chapter explains the history of these migrations in detail. For thousands of years, Hakka people crossed the Yellow River and the Yangtze River from the Central Plains, went up the Gan River to Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province, crossed Wuyi Mountain to Changting, Fujian Province, and finally came to Meizhou, a deep mountain in eastern Guangdong. Then they moved from here to the whole country and overseas, showing a magnificent historical picture of survival and development in adversity. Guangdong is the province with the largest number of Hakkas. Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangxi, Sichuan, Hainan, Hunan, Zhejiang, Taiwan and other places also have a large number of Hakkas, and a large number of Hakkas live in more than 80 countries and regions around the world. The genealogy is the genealogy of a clan or family. Hakka people have a strong sense of clan. When they migrate, they cherish the genealogy and genealogy very much, and regard it as a way to gather people and continue the essence
