This museum, besides being situated on a beautiful viewpoint, is interested and worth a trip if you want to see how the life in the old Portuguese enclave of Macau was. I enjoyed the history.

A very nice museum to learn the histories of Macao and its culture. The museum is built above a hill at an old fort. There are escalators to take people up to the museum (very handy if you travel with older people and children). There is ruins of st paul opposite the museum. We went there on Christmas day, and entry was free that day. We took many great photos outside the museum. There are many old cannons lining up the fort wall

Only accept Macao cash and Chinese payment platforms. Lost in the past. No one is going to pay to take money out of the ATM to pay for a $2 entrance fee on a day trip from HK.
