Macau Government Headquarters
Macau Government Headquarters, Palace and office plaza in São Lourenço, Macau, China.
The two-story pink building with white details features three wings, a lotus conference room, and extensive gardens with fountains facing Nam Van Lake.
The palace, built in 1849 by architect Tomás de Aquino for Baron do Cercal, served as the residence for Portuguese governors until the 1999 transfer to China.
The headquarters combines Portuguese Pombaline architecture with Chinese elements, displaying wooden furniture, ceramics, and mixed garden designs from both traditions.
The Government Headquarters opens its doors to the public twice per year, allowing visitors to explore both interior spaces and exterior grounds.
The building maintains its position as the chief executive office of Macau while preserving original architectural features from the 19th century Portuguese colonial period.
