About
The Guia Fortress (Portuguese: Fortaleza da Guia; Chinese: 東望洋炮台) is a 17th-century colonial military fort, chapel, and lighthouse complex in São Lázaro, Macau. The complex is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Historic Centre of Macau.
The view of the fortress and the lighthouse has been blocked by the Macau Liaison Office since 2010, which is seen by local citizens and scholars as an example that the conservation of heritage in urban planning was ignored by the Macao government.
