St Paul’s Macau, a well known Macau tourist attraction, is a church built in 1602 next to the Jesuit College of St. Paul’s, the first Western college in Asia where missionaries studied Chinese before serving at the Ming Court in Beijing as astronomers and mathematicians. In 1835, a fire destroyed both the college and the St Paul’s Macau church, leaving only the stone facade and grand staircase which is a unique blend of European Renaissance and Asian architecture. Musical performances are often held on the stairs as a dramatic and natural stage. Museum of Sacred Art and Crypt is within the precincts of the ruins of St. Paul’s Macau. The Museum exhibits religious paintings, statues and sacred objects from Churches in Macau while in the crypt adjacent to the Museum the visitor can observe the relics of martyrs from Japan and Vietnam. Na Tcha Temple is a small temple founded over 400 years ago. It is adjacent to the Ruins of St. Paul’s Macau and both form part of the Historic Centre of Macau but reflect profoundly different cultures.

The Historic Centre of Macau is an urban area within the old city of Macau spanning 8 squares and 22 historic buildings. The centre is the product of cultural exchange between East and West spanning over 400 years and is a World Heritage Site. Senado square, in the heart of the city, is paved with a wave-patterned mosaic of coloured stones and is a must see for visitors to Macau. The pavement extends from the ruins of St. Paul’s Macau to the main road and to the church of St. Dominic.

Mount Fortress, built in 1617-26, occupies a hilltop to the east of the ruins of St. Paul’s Macau. It was one of the forts in Macau constructed by the Jesuits as part of a complex which also included the college and church of St. Paul’ s Macau. The canons were used only once, when the Dutch invaded Macau in 1622. This was also the first residence of the governors of Macau. In 1998 the three-level Macau Museum, focusing on the history of Macau, was built into the fortress hill. Monte Fort Corridor is located at the foot of Monte Fort hill and is a convenient way for visitors to reach Monte Fort. The well-located Monte Fort Corridor is ten metres high and is equipped with elevators and links St. Lazarus Church, Monte Fort, and Macao Museum.

Macau Museum has 3 floors of exhibits built into the Mount Fortress hill. A Museum Pass is the best value as it entitles entry, within a period of 5 days to each of the following museums: Grand Prix Museum, Wine Museum, Macau Maritime Museum, Lin Zexu Museum, Museum of Art and Museum of Macau.
