Maritime Museum Review

The Macau Maritime Museum, built in 1987, is located opposite the Mazu Temple in Macau. The museum’s display building was built where the first Portuguese landed. The Macau Museum is full of ocean atmosphere everywhere.

such a nice place to include on your bucketlist when you visit macau...

Free museum tour, popularize navigation knowledge and models of how fishermen fish in the sea; also tell the history of Macau's opening in the 17th century. The design of the whole museum is very distinctive, even the bathroom feels like being on the boat.

Macau is too small, the land is expensive, the population density is too large, and the various facilities in Macau are relatively small, but relatively complete. I visited the Mazu Temple and accidentally saw it in the left corner of the square. There is a blue and white three-story small building with a maritime museum written at the gate. This is the Macau Maritime Museum, because Macau is close to the sea, is an ocean city, and maritime trade has developed. So it is not surprising that there is a maritime museum, which was once the place where the Portuguese landed. A dragon boat was seen on the right side of the gate, which is used by Macau to participate in the dragon boat competition. The museum is not expensive, AUD 10. The museum is like a Mitsubishi boat with a white sail, moored in front of the Ma Pavilion Temple. The underground exhibition hall mainly introduces the life of fishermen in southern China and Macau. The exhibits include various Chinese sailboats, fish bars in the inner harbor, and explaining various fishing methods.

The Macau Maritime Museum is located in front of the Mage Temple. It is said that the display building is the place where the Portuguese landed and visited the Mazu Temple. The opposite is the Maritime Museum, which is very convenient. The museum collects tickets, but it is very cheap and the absolute conscience price. There is no special ticket window, go directly in, there is a small table, a conductor, very simple. The exhibition hall has several areas, there are folk customs, there is a place similar to the screening hall on the first floor, open, introduce the story of Mage Temple, that is, you can watch slowly, and you can sit and rest. In addition, there are many ship models for viewing. There are compass, various ships, and telescopes and other navigational instruments. There is also an aquarium in the museum, but this can't be called an aquarium because it is really small, there are several water tanks on both sides of a long narrow passage, showing some different kinds of fish. Children may be more interested to note that the museum closed on Tuesday. Frankly speaking, although the museum in Macau is not large, the viewing experience is good, quiet, and there are few people. You can slowly enjoy the retail price: 10.0MOP from 10-17 years old 5 patacas/person (Monday-Saturday), 3 patacas/person (Sunday); 18-64 10 patacas/Monday-Saturday, 5 patacas/person (Sunday); free for under 10 years old, 65 years old or above.

The fourth time I came to Macau, I finally dug it out because it cost 15 yuan for tickets. The museum is not too big, three floors, but there are a lot of things. The origin of Macau and Ma Pavilion Temple, the construction and characteristics of various vessels in the history of Chinese and foreign shipbuilding, the multiple routes and fleet size of Zheng He's Xiaxiyang, and the model of the ship is very delicate. There is also a small hall for the sound and light exhibition, and there is a physical experience of fishing boats outside the museum door.
