Event Overview

In response to the Macau government's initiatives for the planning and conservation of Coloane's old district, the "Re-Sailing" heritage preservation event will be held. This event aims to revitalize the shipyard site and pass on the cultural heritage of the former shipbuilding industry, aligning with the goal of balanced development and conservation for the old Coloane urban area.

Once, the shipbuilding industry was a pillar of Macau's economy, but it has declined in recent times, with its craftsmanship nearly lost. This event offers Macau residents a chance to personally experience the former glory of the shipbuilding industry, listen to stories from former shipyard owners, and collectively reflect on the industry's history.
