Lin Zexu Memorial Museum of Macau

Lin Zexu Memorial Museum of Macau, History museum in Nossa Senhora de Fátima, Macau.

The Lin Zexu Memorial Museum of Macau is a history museum in Nossa Senhora de Fátima dedicated to a 19th-century Chinese official and his opposition to opium trade. The collection includes photographs, documents, and artifacts that document his life and efforts during his time in the region.

The official arrived in Macau in 1839 to confront the opium trade, marking a turning point in China's response to this colonial threat. The museum was established decades later to preserve this turbulent period and commemorate his resistance.

The museum stands inside Lin Fung Temple, where on 3 September 1839 Lin Zexu received the Portuguese procurator on a pavilion before the Tin Hau hall and ordered the expulsion of British opium dealers. A life-size model in the central hall recreates that meeting with foreign officials, and the temple forecourt holds a Lin Zexu statue made by sculptors Tang Daxi and Lin Bin, erected in 1989.

The museum sits inside Lin Fung Temple in Nossa Senhora de Fátima, and it is closed on Mondays; it opens the rest of the week from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. Entry is charged, with a lower rate for children under eight and visitors over sixty-five. The exhibition rooms are compact, so an hour or so covers the nearly 200 items.

The 4-metre statue at the entrance was made by sculptors Tang Daxi and Lin Bin and erected in 1989 by the Lin Fung Temple charity committee, eight years before the museum itself opened. It stands in front of the temple where Lin Zexu met the Portuguese official in 1839.

The most beautiful spots to photograph in Macau

Macau fascinates with its contrasts. In a single day, you can walk from a Portuguese quarter with cobblestone streets to a hidden temple tucked behind a staircase, then to a hotel lit up like a movie set. The city mixes baroque church facades, grand casinos, and quiet gardens where tai chi...
