  • Where can I learn more about Hanfu’s cultural background?

    Posted by Felix Chong on March 1, 2025 at 3:24 pm

    Hanfu seems to have such a rich history, but sometimes I’m not sure where to start learning more. Besides reading books, are there other cool resources like websites, documentaries, or museums where I can learn more about the cultural stories and history behind Hanfu?

    If you want to dive deeper into Hanfu’s rich cultural background, there are lots of ways to learn more! Start with books—many of them talk about the history of Chinese clothing across different dynasties. You can also check out museum exhibits if you’re lucky enough to visit places like the Palace Museum in Beijing, where you can see actual Hanfu garments that date back centuries.

    But if you’re more into digital resources, YouTube is full of channels that break down Hanfu’s history and significance. There are also online communities where people chat about Hanfu and share their knowledge. If you’re more into podcasts, look for ones about Chinese history or traditional culture, which often talk about Hanfu as part of a larger conversation on Chinese heritage.

    Between books, online resources, and hands-on museum visits, you’ll find plenty of ways to dive into Hanfu’s cultural story.

    I’d just Google “hanfu history” or scroll X—tons of posts pop up. Maybe some museum sites too?
