The Dwarf Empire (Chinese: 小矮人帝国) is a theme park near Kunming, China that features comic performances by people with dwarfism.
Locals and supporters of the park claim that it provides employment to people who would otherwise be unable to find work, but it has been criticized by western culture, for treating dwarfism as a humorous condition.

Critics contend that the park resembles a human zoo and isolates its employees from the rest of society.
In their short documentary they interviewed some of the staff and were taken on a tour of the park, including the dorms and behind the scenes places that visitors are not normally privy to.
