Rural furniture and farm implements are on display in this converted 200-year-old Hakka village house. The Hakkas, meaning "guest people"; arrived from central and southern China centuries ago and are among Hong Kong's earliest residents and landowners. Hakka women were forbidden from inheriting land so that ownership could be retained through the male's family. The museum is located in Hong Kong Island's easternmost district, where tourists are a rarity. Take the MTR Island line to Chai Wan and then follow signs for exit B and the museum, which is a five to 10 minute walk from the station. Admission: Free.
