House Museum


The House Museum in Taipa, Macau, is a popular site for couples to have their pictures taken on their wedding day, and you can see why.

It consists of five houses from the Portuguese colonial era.  They were built in 1920 for prosperous families who lived in Macau at the time.  They were restored in 1999 and contain all the furniture, decorations and possessions likely to have been found there originally.

  1. I had to look these up. I wanted to see inside some of the houses, although I'm not finding much. The architecture is interesting, although many of them look almost too perfect to live in.

  2. What an interesting place this must be. I'd love to see it if I ever get back to Hong Kong. I'll have to take the fairy to Macau.
