An exhibition of mostly historical photos is being held at the Macao Museum from 13 July to 8 September, as part of official commemorations of the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the Macao SAR.

Entitled simply Old Meets New, the collection of images is designed to show the many changes that have taken place in the city as a result of its economic development.

Divided into sections ranging from “Scenes of the past” to “Everyday Life,” the 120 images and other artefacts vividly showcase Macao’s urban landscape.
