"flying kite" Signage Design for Taiwan Hakka Cultural Center Taiwan Hakka Cultural Center is established as a specialist institution to promote the long-term conservation and development of Hakka culture, including the collection, exhibition, research and education of Hakka culture. The Hakka population in Taiwan numbers around 4 million people. They came from mainland China in 17th century and they reside in the northern Taiwan such as Miaoli. This center is divided into two, the exhibition part and the research part, and the former one which is open to the public consists of permanent exhibition room, four special exhibition rooms, theater and lecture rooms.
