Hu Youyi, the Gulangyu-born piano collector who now resides in Australia and founded Gulangyu's Piano Museum (the largest in Asia, and the only one in China), has also built the world's largest organ museum on Gulangyu (no, it is not a museum for the world's largest organ, but the largest museum for organs; I just know someone would grab hold of that).The museum has more than 100 organs, including over 30 varieties of reed organs, accordions, pianicas and three large-scale pipe organs.
It is in the Bagua Lou (Eight Diagram Building--the prominent domed building that resembles a consulate).
