Macau Museum of Souvenir, Souvenir museum in São Lourenço, Macau, China

The Macau Museum of Souvenir occupies a ground-floor shop of Yau Cheng Mansion at No. 23, Rua da Palha (Calçada da Barra), near the A-Ma Temple. Opened in 2011 by the Koi Kei Charity Association, it holds more than a hundred objects from Macau's souvenir trade, among them tin calendar signs from Hin Kei and Ying Kei bakeries, mooncake wrapping paper, containers for souvenirs, recreated old bakery scenes and the handcart on which Koi Kei began by selling peanut candy.

Koi Kei Bakery began collecting items from Macau's souvenir trade in 2009 and set up the Koi Kei Charity Association to prepare a museum. The Macau Museum of Souvenir opened on 19 July 2011 at 23 Rua da Palha, with a ceremony led by charity president Leong Chan Kuong and bakery spokesperson Choy Lan. A postcard charity sale was held on the opening day.

The museum's name, Macau Museum of Souvenir, uses the Cantonese term "souvenir" for the bakery goods and gifts visitors buy. Its collection includes calendars and tin signs from Hin Kei and Ying Kei bakeries, mooncake wrapping paper, and containers once used to hold souvenirs. A recreated old-style bakery scene shows how these shops looked.

The museum occupies a ground-floor shop at No. 23 Rua da Palha (Travessa de São Tiago), in the historic centre near the A-Ma Temple. Three augmented-reality screens and small electronic games let visitors try the exhibits themselves. The rooms are compact, so allow a short visit and expect a shop-floor setting rather than a large gallery.

The museum preserves an original pushcart from Koi Kei Bakery that once moved through Macau's streets selling peanut candy to passing customers. This cart shows how street vendors once brought their goods directly to shoppers in the neighborhood.
