The Taipa Houses Museum consists of five houses, of which four display various artifacts and exhibits of Portuguese families' lives during Macao's colonial era and another serves as an event venue in Taipa, Macao. Built in 1921, and opened to the public in 1999, the museum complex demonstrates the charm of the Portuguese architectural style.
