Step into the rich world of Baba-Nyonya at Beijing's Capital Museum! 🎨 On May 29, 2025, the exhibition "Exploring the World of Baba-Nyonya: A Peranakan Culture Exhibition on the Maritime Silk Road" opened its doors, offering a dynamic journey into a fascinating blend of Chinese traditions and Southeast Asian influences.
Featuring 132 unique artifacts, the show uses multimedia displays and meticulous scene restorations to bring to life the history, religion, customs, and art of the Baba-Nyonya community. Originating from the intermarriages between early Chinese immigrants and local Southeast Asians, this cultural fusion is celebrated in every exhibit detail.
Hosted by the Capital Museum with cultural relic support from the Asian Civilisations Museum and the Peranakan Museum under the National Heritage Board of Singapore, the exhibition runs until August 17, 2025. Whether you're a history buff, culture enthusiast, or simply curious about tales of artistic fusion, this immersive experience promises to inspire and captivate. 🚀
