Sam Tung Uk Museum

Sam Tung Uk Museum is a preserved village settlement featuring several traditional houses arranged in a symmetrical layout with residential areas and communal spaces. The buildings display the structure and organization that typified historical settlements in the region.

The settlement originated as a Hakka village more than 200 years ago and was later designated as a protected site. Its conversion into a museum helped preserve this historical community for future generations to explore.

The museum showcases local traditions through exhibitions and displays that reveal how people lived and worked in this community. Visitors can see the customs and crafts that shaped life in the region over generations.

The site is conveniently located near public transportation and easy to reach. Visitors should allow enough time to explore all the houses and areas within the settlement.

The residential spaces and ancestral altar halls remain furnished in their original style, showing how Hakka families actually lived together. These details offer a direct window into the daily existence of former inhabitants.
