Abstract

This study illuminates the lasting impact of Han cultural heritage on the Chinese diaspora, particularly in Penang, Malaysia, where the Chinese community comprises a significant portion of the populace. Penang’s cultural landscape is a tapestry of diverse influences, with Chinese culture occupying a central position in its multicultural milieu. By examining the intersection of Han cultural heritage and diasporic identity, this research investigates the factors shaping cultural integration within the Penang Chinese community. At the same time, field visits to Chinese museums (collecting data on exhibitions in Nyonya museums) were made to illustrate the significance of Han cultural heritage to the expression of Chinese folklore and historical narratives through Chinese museums, with the aim of filling the gaps in the role of Chinese museums and Han cultural heritage in the transmission of Han culture to the diaspora communities.
