Macau Exhibition | A Macau History Exhibition Suitable for Families

The permanent exhibitions at the Macau Museum are rich and can be roughly divided into two threads according to my summary: and . is the cause, and is the result. It is the rich and unique history that has created Macau's diverse cultural traditions. Today, let's briefly talk about the part of the exhibition. 🗺️Geographical Clues🗺️ One well-known and undeniable fact is that Macau has a long history of colonization. During the colonial period, a large amount of foreign cultures, led by Portugal 🇵🇹, poured into Macau. ⚠️Upon entering the museum, there is an interesting corridor. It presents a condensed form of cultural representative content from ancient times to the present; what's more impressive is that the left and right sides of the corridor respectively display the local Chinese 🇨🇳 culture of Macau and the foreign cultures, corresponding one by one, offering an excellent viewing experience. 🧿The Underestimated Length of History🧿 Macau's human history began in the Stone Age. Though small in size, it has been a place of human activity for thousands of years, something my narrow knowledge did not anticipate. The long history through the colonial period to the thriving post-handover period, the combination of cultural relics and models makes the exhibition more interesting. 🖼️The Overlooked Historical Status🖼️ Mainly the part about the Maritime Silk Road. As an important port city, Macau should indeed be an important node on the Maritime Silk Road. Based on trade exchanges, the already culturally diverse Macau was infused with even more elements, reflecting inclusiveness and integration on various levels. 📝Simple Summary📝 If the exhibition only displayed cultural relics, it would be somewhat dull. The logic of the exhibition here, combining cultural relics with model explanations, is both interesting and valuable, and well worth a closer look.
