Located in the Chinatown District of Manhattan, it is a place dedicated to showcasing the history of Chinese Americans in the past 200 years. A hundred years ago, Chinese laborers and many laborers from all over the world worked together to build railways and cities. However, the hard work of generations has not been widely recognized, and there are still many discrimination and inequality. Here we record history through photographs and objects.

    Founded in 1980, the American Chinese Museum, by the "New York Chinatown History Project" several times to rename, to 2007 confirmed the current MOCA, the museum's first special exhibition "Eight pound career" records show the life of the Chinese laundryman in New York microcosm, The building where the museum is located is also designed by the famous Chinese architect Lin Yu. It is a New York museum that is very cold. On the day of arrival, the museum was still a bit lively, and many tourists came to visit. The museum also has a 100-year-old Chinese typewriter on display. The museum's recent exhibition is a step-by-step exhibition of the life stories of Chinese Americans. According to the theme and time order, take visitors all the way through history. The theme introduction of the museum is also mostly in both Chinese and English languages. The museum also holds a lion dance that is necessary for the New Year's Eve parade. The exhibition hall is very rich in Chinese elements. When I came, there were many parents who brought children to visit.

    The Chinese Museum of the United States is much smaller than we thought, and it is much worse than the Chinese Museum of San Francisco. The information introduced is quite rich, but we have not looked too closely at San Francisco.

    There are also a lot of Chinese in New York, many of which were sold to the United States more than 100 years ago for hard labor. The Chinese Museum has very detailed information about Chinese history in the United States.

    On the last day of New York, I went to a place I should go most - "Chinatown" where the facade was not so impressive "Museum of History of Chinese Americans". The collection is rich, ranging from the tea sensation in the United States in the eighteenth century to the influx of gold-rushing Chinese workers; from the "Chinese Exclusion Act" to the Allied War of Resistance; from the popularity of "miscellaneous" food and magic performances to the yellow faces in Hollywood; as well as the anti-Communist Party in the fifties, the social changes caused by the establishment of diplomatic relations in the seventies, and so on. It's a pity that most Chinese tourists do not list it as a must-see item. I recommend it to you hereby.

    The Chinese Museum hidden in New York Chinatown is not known to most people, but as a Chinese, it should be visited. It tells the history of Chinese blood and tears in a large number of pictures and objects. From the first generation of piglets to the modern Chinese elite, all the pictures and collections have bilingual descriptions in Chinese and English. It is of great value. It's worth mentioning that the museum was designed by Ms. Lin Huiyin's niece, Lin Jing. Another of her masterpieces in the United States is the Vietnam War Monument in Washington.

    The American Chinese Museum mainly introduces the history of Chinese struggle in the United States, and it is still worth visiting.
