  The Handover Gift Exhibition Gallery is on the 2nd floor. As each handover gift is an encapsulation of the unique artistic regional styles of the different provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions of China, it warrants at least an extra visit to view all the 56 gifts properly especially as admission is free.

This attraction is regularly visited by the mainland Chinese tours of Macau but is generally unknown to Western and... More

  A good place to see what each province of China makes and their rich culture - there are some disputable pieces including the one from Tibet but its a good 30 mins tour. Free of charge and free wifi.
