200-year-old Hakka village ✨Sam Tung Uk Museum, Hong Kong🏛️

Sam Tung Uk Museum is located in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong. It is particularly quiet in the bustling city. Sam Tung Uk is a Hakka walled village built by the Chen clan in the 18th century. It has a history of more than 200 years and is one of the oldest walled villages in Hong Kong. It is very suitable for fans of ancient architecture and historical culture to come and visit~ Attractions💞Recommended reasons: 🌟Rich historical background Sam Tung Uk is the earliest Hakka walled village in Hong Kong. It was built by the Chen family around the mid-18th century, around the 51st year of Emperor Qianlong's reign. After more than 200 years of history, the three houses are still well preserved. When the Hong Kong subway was built in 1970, the villagers of Sam Tung House moved to other places. It was converted into a museum and opened to the public. 🌟Unique architectural style The architectural layout of the three houses is like a chessboard, with the front hall, middle hall and ancestral hall located on the central axis; four independent rooms are arranged on both sides; there are also many horizontal houses on the left, right and back rows that enclose the entire village. Its architectural style can be regarded as a model of Hakka walled villages. 🌟Diversity exhibition hall The museum has several exhibitions and lecture halls, displaying ancient furniture, handicrafts, farm tools and daily necessities of the Hakka people, etc. It also allows people to understand the ancient and modern history of Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong. —————————— 📍Address: No. 2 Guwu Lane, Tsuen Wan District, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region 🕰️Opening hours: 10:00-18:00 🚇Take the MTR to Tsuen Wan Station Exit B and walk to #RegisterAprilHotelTestSleeper2025 #HongKongGoodPlaces #CheckIn #HongKongCheckIn #Museum #HistoricalBuildings
