The Hedong Library Building is said to be one of the world cultural heritages of Macau. It was built before 1894 and was not officially opened to the public until August 1, 1958. It has a long history. It has a collection of about 3,000 books and is the only garden-style library in Hong Kong and Macao. The building is 3 floors high, the first floor is a reading room, and the second floor is the "Hedong Collection Book Building". The furnishings are elegant and exude the taste of Chinese classical study. The building also has an open front and back garden. The small and fresh architectural style has attracted many tourists to check in here. How can you miss it?

    Beautiful garden, old and modern architecture among old flats. Really nice and quiet. Sitting area in small garden is so great. Better take a rest here than in cafeteria. This library is not known to many people. Children book floor entrance is very remarkable design.

    How far did Gangding Theatre come out? It's the He Dong Library. Its facade is not very impressive. It's easy to miss it. It's worth paying attention to. It's also a milky yellow building. It's a three-storey house. It's a courtyard in front of the door. Many children are doing their homework. In the back floor, there are paintings and calligraphy on display. The house with glass outside looks like a reading room. In the back floor, there is a big courtyard.
