Taipa Houses-Museum

This museum consists of a row of preserved colonial-style houses in the Taipa district. Visitors go here to see examples of traditional Macanese architecture and to learn about the domestic life and social history of the region through the exhibits housed within the buildings.

From the Macau city centre, you can reach the museum via public bus or taxi. The journey typically takes 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic conditions and the specific starting point in the peninsula.

Visit Duration

Allow approximately 1 to 2 hours to walk through the gardens and explore the interiors of the historic houses.
