Unique architectural heritage

In over four centuries Macau has not only inspired architecture of differrent traditions, it has preserved and maintained an extraordinary number of its building, making them part of everyday. As a result, within a short distance you can find Taoist temoles from the Ming Dynasty and baroque churches from the 18th century; hilltop fortresses from the 17th century and classic China Coast shophouses; the oldest European theatre in Asia and the first western lighthouse; colonial and Chinese courtyards.
