Cantonese Opera, also known as “Guangdong Drama,” is a traditional Chinese opera genre that carries a profound historical heritage. Originating in south China’s Guangdong Province, it is cherished not only in Guangdong but also in the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions and across overseas Chinese communities. This widespread popularity makes Cantonese Opera an integral part of Lingnan culture, showcasing the unique artistic charm of the Cantonese-speaking region.
