About Guangdong Museum
Founded in 1957, the Guangdong Museum moved in 2010 into a new home in Zhujiang New Town designed by Rocco Yim. The cantilevered, perforated façade was inspired by traditional carved Cantonese boxes.
Its galleries cover Guangdong's history, natural history, and the export-art tradition that linked the Pearl River Delta with the rest of the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

Preventable blindness, caused by conditions like cataracts and trachoma, affects people of all ages across the world's poorest communities. A small gift — for the cost of a museum ticket — can provide a simple surgery to restore someone's sight and transform their life.
