Indonesian Hakka Museum, Cultural heritage museum in East Jakarta City, Indonesia
The Indonesian Hakka Museum is a cultural museum in East Jakarta dedicated to the heritage of the Hakka community. It contains three main exhibition areas that explore Indonesian Chinese history, Hakka traditions, and the Yongding Hakka culture.
The museum opened in 2014 and marked an important moment for recognizing Chinese Hakka heritage within Indonesia. Its founding occurred as the community sought to document and preserve their history and identity for future generations.
The museum displays traditional Hakka objects such as farming tools, household items, and miniature dwellings that show how the community lived and worked. These artifacts tell stories about the crafts and customs that shaped daily life across generations.
The museum is located within the Taman Mini Indonesia Indah complex and is best explored by referring to a map of the grounds. Guided tours and educational programs are available to help visitors learn more about Hakka culture and history.
The building itself is a notable feature, replicating the circular Tulou architecture that traditional Hakka families inhabited in China's Fujian province. This design allows visitors to step into the historical living spaces and understand how the community organized their homes.
