Abstract

As Macau once was a Portuguese colony, there are the oldest, largest, best preserved and most centralized buildings with eastern and western styles coexisting in the historic urban area of Macau. The process of urban renewal has caused damages of different degrees to historical architectural heritage. It can be said that urban modernization was born at the cost of historical architectural heritage. Around the world, the protection of architectural heritage has been carried out in various forms since the formation of human society. In recent centuries, with the continuous development of civilized society, this protection activity has been expanding in both depth and scale. In view of huge number of historical architectural heritage, it has been facing difficulties and challenges to protect and utilize them all over the world. The ways and strategies for protecting the historic architectural heritage is a topic that scholars all over the world think and discuss together.
