About the CPD Talk
Macao is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with more than 20 historical locations of note. It is one of the most unique destinations in Asia with its East-Meets-West architecture and culture which coexists side by side with a modern and lavish lifestyle generated by its casinos and tourist industry.
This talk is about the experience of the restoration and reuse of the Macau architectural heritage, taking Mandarin House, Music School, Patane Library and Ho Clan Ancestral Hall as examples.
