Museu Maritimo
The Maritime Museum, or Museu Marítimo, is an excellent museum that showcases Macau's affinity with the sea. It is built in front of the A-Ma Temple, at the entrance to the Inner Harbour (Porto Interior), in what is believed to be the very spot that the Portuguese landed in Macau for the first time.
