Since the late 1980s, the museum has been collecting homes and courtyards from the Ming and Qing dynasties that were once inhabited by merchants, bankers and other businessmen from those eras.
Over 8,600 stone horse hitching posts from various dynasties are also on display. The museum has been successively supported as a key municipal and provincial project during the 11th and 12th five-year plans (2006-2016) and has been appointed by the Ministry of Culture as a national demonstration base for China’s cultural industry.
The museum also features live performances of Chinese folk songs and dances dating back to the late 19th and early 20th century. Walking around the outdoor museum places the visitor right in the middle of China’s history.
