The “Cantonese Opera Heritage Hall” welcomes you with a triumph of colors, materials and precious objects, in an area that even includes a reconstruction of an actual opera house. If you’re not familiar with Cantonese opera, it is a highly complex artistic genre, involving a number of different disciplines: song, dance and acting, as well as acrobatics and martial arts. Artists’ training requires years of study and great skill. To save this art from dying out, there are associations that offer scholarships for the most deserving students. 

This gallery is a treasure trove of richly decorated stage costumes and fabulous objects such as headdresses and hair clips, posters, photographs, set designs and multimedia programs.  

Some of the objects were donated by great performers, such as the well-known star Lee Hong Kum.
