Yin Yu Tang House, located in Salem, MA, is a historic Chinese home that offers visitors a unique glimpse into the daily lives and cultural heritage of the Huang family. Originally built during the Qing Dynasty, the house was carefully dismantled and transported to Massachusetts in the 1990s, where it was re-erected on the campus of the Peabody Essex Museum (PEM).
Through its intricate architectural details, well-documented genealogy, and collection of furnishings passed down through eight generations, Yin Yu Tang provides a rich narrative of historical changes in China and the global impact on individuals' lives. Visitors can explore the sixteen-bedroom home, learn about the family's traditions, and gain insights into the aspirations and creative expressions of the Huang family.
