MUSEUM
SHEUNG YIU FOLK MUSEUM
The museum is part of a restored Hakka village typical of those found here in the 19th cen-
tury. The village was founded about 150 years ago by the Wong clan, which built a kiln to
make bricks. In the whitewashed dwellings, pigpens and cattle sheds - all surrounded by a
high wall and watchtower to guard against pirate raids - there are farm implements, objects
of daily use, furnishings and Hakka clothing.
The museum is a leisurely 20-minute walk south of Pak Tam Chung along the 1km-long
Pak Tam Chung Nature Trail
.
