    First of all, its free. We ended up spending 2 hours in here with kids. Highly engaging displays and presentation. Detailed stories and collection. Covering portugese-british-japanese-communis occupation. The kids got really excited about the old models of planes, guns and artillery. I loved it more than the national museum. Reminded me of the country’s struggle for independence. As for the building itself, I didn’t expect much but it was comfortable.

    This is a fantastic free attraction and definitely worth a visit. The staff are friendly and helpful. The only downside is that the self-service drink machines only accept one-yuan bills. I was so thirsty when I went, and I only had enough money for one drink😂
