The Macau Museum, or Museu de Macau, is one of the best museums in Macau. Lacated within the Mount Fortress, Macau Museum provides a detailed explanation about the origin and development of Macau. The life-size reconstruction of period shops and streets makes it a wonderful visiting experience.
The museum is open Tuesdays to Sundays, from 10:00am to 6:00pm and the admission fee is MOP$15.00.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
