The historical urban area before the calendar starts from Yangshan in the east, reaches Neigang Wharf on Xinma Road in the west, reaches Mage Mountain in the south and Baigechao Park in the north. It is the oldest, largest, most complete and concentrated historical city in China, and it is the crystallization of cultural exchanges and pluralistic existence between China and the West for more than 400 years.
Since the middle of the16th century, people from Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, Britain, France, Italy, the United States, Japan, Sweden, India, Malaysia, the Philippines, North Korea and even Africa have built houses, churches, roads, forts and even cemeteries in the historical areas of Macao. Some main architectural forms and styles after the Renaissance, combined with different architectural elements in other parts of Asia, have produced new variants in Macao, forming a unique architectural style.

At the 29th meeting of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee on July 15, 2005, Macau Historic District was recognized by all 2 1 member countries, and China "Macau Historic District" was officially included in the World Heritage List, which is the 3rd1World Heritage Site in China.
Macao is roughly divided into three regions: Macau Peninsula, Taipa and Sixth Ring Road. The latter two areas were originally two outlying islands, but they have been connected into a land by large-scale reclamation and connected to the peninsula by three sea-crossing bridges.
As a world cultural heritage, the historic city is located in Macau Peninsula, and consists of more than 20 historic buildings and related public areas (former sites, namely squares), which embodies a very distinct blend of modern Chinese and Western cultures, many of which have the historical position of "China first".
