On historical accounts, stone lettering/ carving knits closely with humanity, religion and of course, the culture of remembering and honouring the departed.
Stone lettering/ carving lays a showcase of perennial historical accounts across different times, encompassing the lives, knowledge, wisdom, maturity, charisma and heritage of the greats. Calligraphy stands for one of the very refined forms of art. The Chinese Calligraphy Stone Gallery is inspired by the beauty of ancient wisdom.

Proudly, Chinese Calligraphy Stone Gallery at Oriental Villa spreads the seeds of cherishing the beauty of ancient wisdom as you remember your beloved soul, thanks to the attention-to-detail undertakings by the sculptors, calligraphers and landscapers.
刻石记事自古有之,妇好墓石磬刻文乃殷商旧物,春秋战国有石鼓文、诅楚文留传大篆字形,秦代有峄山刻石、泰山刻石留传小篆真迹。东汉刻石立碑以记功颂德,蔚然成风,张迁碑、曹全碑、史晨碑等碑刻遍布各地,保存汉隶风韵,其后各代碑刻多以楷书为之。石刻碑文具存真耐久特点,故为后代子孙留下珍贵文化遗产。后代更有立碑翻刻各代文字与书法名作,汇集而成碑林之壮举。
我国企业家拿督邝汉光所领导之富贵集团,素重企业人文内涵,以传承及发展中华文化为己任。为传承书法艺术、弘扬文化,遂于二零零九年毅然决定拨地二十英亩,投入资金上千万,以创设马来西亚第一座碑林――中华人文碑林,借此展示中国文字演变历程与中、日、韩、台、马各体书法名作。
此项文化建设工程获马来西亚文教团体热烈响应,鼎力支持,由书法家、学者与华团领导组成筹建委员会,共襄义举。建委会既成,旋即组团远赴中国重点考察碑林,取经借鉴,而后再据国情所需增添本地与日、韩、台书法名作,冀能建成我国第一碑林。全体建委会成员集思广益,对碑林造型、布局、作品筛选、雕刻质量等展开深入讨论与审核,力求碑刻反映真迹之形态与神韵。
本碑林之碑刻共分三组:(一)中国历代各体文字与书法名作碑刻,展现汉字演变轨迹及历代书法家与名人如:王羲之、颜真卿、苏东坡、黄庭坚、米芾、武则天、乾隆、孙中山等人之墨宝;(二)我国已故书法家及前贤如:竺摩长老、黄石庵、施香沱、崔大地、沈慕羽等人之遗作;(三)国际已故书法家如:空海法师、金膺显等人之作品。
中华人文碑林既为汉字发展史之缩影,亦属另类古今中外书法艺术展览馆,展现中华文化人文素质与艺术特色;既是文化艺术重镇,亦为重要旅游景点。
