The Photographies of Margarida Fernandes give a good perspective of the daily life in Macau. The author was able to catch the special extaordinary mixture of Chinese and Portuguese culture in Macau: the city has a decidedly European ambiance although most of the people who live there are Chinese. There are a number of celebrations which combine both Portuguese and Chinese customs so you will be able to see things in the photographs exposed that you wouldn’t see anywhere else.
