Monte Forte (Fortaleza do Monte)

Built in the 16th century by the Jesuits and later used as a military base, this fort today features a public park, an observatory and the Macau Museum.

Reviewed By DickyKnees63 - Adelaide, Australia

The Macau Museum is spread over multiple levels atop the Monte Fort - great city views by the way. Escalators get you to the top for this no fee attraction which contains well curated displays of Macau's colonial and Chinese heritage. Essentially, you work your way from floor to floor to peruse artworks, static display, dioramas & AV prentations covering the history of Macau. Everything from a traditional Chinese bridal bed to memorabilia from the long defunct Macau fireworks factories. Very worth while.
