Abstract: This study explores the change and development of Hakka culture from the perspective of transportation. The study first reviews the origin and formation of Hakka culture. Then, it analyzes transportation as an important driving factor for the change and development of Hakka culture from three aspects: the influence of ancient transportation on Hakka migration, the modern transportation changes and the spread of Hakka culture, and the contemporary transportation development and the innovation of Hakka culture. The development of transportation has shortened the distance between time and space, greatly facilitating the inheritance and dissemination of Hakka culture; the convenience of transportation has accelerated the dissemination of information and strengthened the cultural identity of Hakka people all over the world; and changes in transportation have accelerated the movement of population and facilitated the globalization and dissemination of Hakka culture. While promoting the transmission and dissemination of Hakka culture, transportation also faces challenges such as high costs and uneven development. Therefore, while using transportation development to promote Hakka culture, the protection of Hakka culture needs to be strengthened to ensure that the traditional culture is truly inherited and developed.
