The MaiWah museum of Chinese history in #Butte #Montana.

It’s a little museum that does its best to chronicle the history of Chinese immigrants into the mining city of Butte in the late 1800s and early 1900s. It’s a labor of love by the people of Butte who really care about their history - good, the bad and the ugly.

It also sponsors “Butte America's annual Chinese New Year Parade, which has been described as the shortest, loudest, and (sometimes) coldest parade in Montana.”
