The Hakka Cultural Development Center, Hakka Affairs Council manages the national Hakka cultural parks in northern and southern Taiwan, bearing the important mission of preserving, transmitting, and promoting Hakka culture. These parks serve as vital public spaces for cultural engagement—linking Hakka communities, tourism, and local industries to revitalize the cultural landscape of Hakka villages.
The exhibitions in both parks highlight three major themes:
1. The historical context of the development of Taiwan’s Hakka communities (Taiwan Hakka);
2. Interactions between Hakka and other ethnic groups (Multiethnic Taiwan);
3. From Local Roots to the Global Hakka World (Global Hakka).
In addition, the Center established the Big Lion Brother Puppet Troupe, inspired by the stone guardian lions of Dalu-guan in Gaoshu Township, Liugdui, and recruited volunteers to perform original musical and dance theater productions that vividly depict the stories and everyday life of southern Hakka villages.
This album—the first of its kind—collects the highlights of the Center’s exhibitions and performances from 2017 to 2018, accompanied by a CD. It aims to extend the vitality of Hakka performing arts, reach a wider audience, and present a more diverse and dynamic stage for Hakka cultural expression.
