Across Guangdong, each of the hundreds of cultural centers and museums tells a special story about Lingnan history and culture. The sweeping eaves of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall carry a century of history while the colonnades of Shamian Island's architecture are engraved with the fusion of East and West. The Opium War Museum in Dongguan preserves memories that time cannot erase, and the Chung Ying Street Museum in Shenzhen records a nation's journey to awakening.

In this fourth installment of Guangzhou Daily's“Guangdong Grows Greater”series, we explore the profound heritage within these institutions, a vital thread in the tapestry of the“Hundred, Thousand, and Ten Thousand Project.”
