Relive the feeling of the past
The footprint of Dr. Sun Yat-sen
Dr. Sun Yat-sen, who led the Revolution of 1911 and overthrew the Manchu government in19/,was born in Cuiheng village, dozens of kilometers north of Macau. 1892 After graduating from Queen's College in Hong Kong, she moved to Macao to practice medicine in Jinghu Hospital in Macao. This is his first job. He rented a suite in front of the museum 14 (this building no longer exists). Until later, he was rich. Because his family's population is increasing (originally with his wife, one son and two daughters), he published an article in Echo Macaense newspaper/magazine, advocating reform, helping farmers in China and establishing schools for the working people. Chico Fernandes, editor of Echo Macaense newspaper/magazine, is one of Sun Yat-sen's supporters ┅┅ Another supporter is Lu Jiu (a major philanthropist and businessman in China, who built Lulian Ruoyuan and founded Jinghu Hospital) ┅┅┅ Lu Jiu persuaded the hospital to lend Dr. Sun Yat-sen two thousand silver dollars so that he could open a Chinese and Western medicine bureau in Caodui Street (the pharmacy is gone). At that time, it was a gathering place for Dr. Sun Yat-sen and liberals. ┅ ┅ Dr. Sun Yat-sen is also a frequent visitor to Lulian Ruoyuan ┅ ┅1894 Lu Jiu was forced to leave when he learned that the comprador of the Manchu government planned to overthrow Dr. Sun Yat-sen, and went to Guangdong first, where he established the China Revolutionary Renaissance Alliance ┅ ┅ and then left Guangdong for Macau. After staying in Macau for a few days, he took a boat to Honolulu, USA. Later, Dr. Sun Yat-sen never went back to Macau, but his family stayed in Macau. An ammunition depot exploded, destroying their apartment. His family decided to build the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall on the original site. In addition, a bronze statue of Dr. Sun Yat-sen stands in the garden next to the museum. The memorial hall is open to the public every morning 10 to 5 pm and closed on Tuesdays.
