[2025 Macau Attraction] Travel Guide for Macau Contemporary Art Center - Navy Yard No.1 (Updated Jun)

#MacauAttractions Macau Contemporary Art Center． Maritime Workshop No. 1 is located in the Barra District. It was the mechanical department of the former government shipyard. It was a place for shipbuilding and ship repair at that time and has special historical significance in the history of Macau. The predecessor of the Maritime Workshop was the Dock Machinery Department. During the heyday of Macau’s shipbuilding industry, this was the place for shipbuilding and ship repair. With the decline of industry, shipbuilding technology was gradually forgotten by history. Maritime Workshop No. 1 was originally the machinery room of King Carlos I’s dock, with a high ceiling and a full sense of space. After restoration, it became a contemporary art center, regularly exhibiting works by artists from all over the world, while preserving the original appearance of the building, giving people a glimpse of its old appearance. Outstanding artists from all over the world are regularly invited to exhibit their works here, and they collaborate with performing arts groups to hold experimental performing arts projects, integrating visual art exhibitions and performing arts. This will allow the area to present Macau’s creativity in a new way, promote local arts and cultural development, and build it into a contemporary art center. It is worth a visit! ! Detailed address: Macau Fong Shun Parish, A-Ma Street (free to visit)

Storybook readings, art crafts, picture book games, and parent-child reading – we spent a wonderful weekend with our little ones at Macau’s Doca dos Holandeses, filled with joy and laughter 🌈. 🔹Storybook Reading Teacher Xiaoman brought her new book, *Mr. Mi Goes Tomato Shopping*. With its soft color palette and delicate storytelling, it tells a heartwarming tale. Amidst the laughter and fun, everyone picked up their brushes and painted various tomatoes and kittens. Our older daughter wanted to share this joy with her younger sister back home, so Teacher Xiaoman specially designed an avatar of a girl with a bun hairstyle on the title page for her. She showed it off to us all the way home 🥰. 🔹Art Crafts You can register on-site to experience the intangible cultural heritage of rubbing. It costs MOP 50 per session. It's a three-color stamp set, and the printing plate is made of tea leaves, promoting environmental protection. It's quite unique, and there are teachers on-site to guide you. Picture 13 shows the result of our older daughter and dad's joint effort👍🏻. 🔹Picture Book Games We enjoyed the picture book *A Ride with Grandpa* with the teacher. During the session, the teacher handed out small toys to the children based on the storyline, and then we played games together. The children were all very enthusiastic. 🔹Parent-Child Reading There's also a reading area on the second floor where you can relax. We read picture books together there. Parent-child reading allows for the exchange of interesting ideas and strengthens the parent-child bond. 🥳In addition, there's the Tai Tip Pou food court nearby, offering a variety of local snacks that captivated both adults and children. The cotton candy was as soft as a cloud, and the fish balls were delightfully bouncy. After playing, we came here to rest and have some snacks~. Spending the weekend here is a fantastic choice~ We'll be back! ✅Tong You Ma Kok Activities ⌚️March 8–April 20, 2025, every Saturday and Sunday, 11:00 am–6:00 pm 📍No. 2, Doca dos Holandeses, Macau
