The museum is dedicated to the history of Hakka (Hakka Han) people, their ancestry, language, culture, customs, clothes, tools, household wares, and architecture.
There are 56 official or recognized as major ethnic groups in China, of which Han Chinese comprise 91.59% of China’s total population. Thus, China has 55 ethnic minorities. However, many of the ethnic groups have varying ancestries and languages. The Hakka people are a variant group of Han Chinese, are sometimes referred to as Hakka Han, and have their own Hakka language, which is a variant mix of both Mandarin and Cantonese. They are widely spread through the provinces of Guangdong, Fujian, Jiangxi, Guangxi, Sichuan, Hunan, Zhejiang, Hainan and Guizhou, and also I Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Jamaica. Hakka people originally lived in northern China and moved south with the defeat of the Nan Song dynasty in the 1270s. This branch of Han people currently numbers about 80 million, of which most no longer speak the Hakka language.

The park is a good walking experience, particularly the back upper areas. The facility is clean and nicely done. We stayed at the hotel and was surprised at the set up and 5 star quality of the hotel, food and overall stay.

Very interesting to visit here, I already been there for 2 times and never get bored to visit this Hakka village. This building is a western-hakka architectures different among others building in the village.
Don't forget to visit Dafudi Horn House which located in the same area. It is the only Hakka horn shape house in the world, but need to walk around 500 metres inside the village.
Really like this "Hakka authentic village". Its kindness, nature, culture were really so great. Don't forget to have an interaction with the local also, that was really impressive..

Hakka Park is a 2-in-1 attraction. It is a great venue for new couples to have their wedding photographs taken, as well as some kind of a theme park for everybody else.
One part of the park can be visited if you took the buggy (that takes more than 10 pax). The road is paved, and there are a few spots where guests could stop for a photo opportunity.
The other part of the park must be explored by feet. There are food/drink stalls, more photography opportunities, and a Hakka performance (if you're there at the right time). There are also budget accommodation within the park, and a few higher-end hotels too.
