The Carpentery Guildhall is built to dedicated to Chinese eminent craftsman Lu Ban with an aim to preserve the waning art of homebuilding carpentry in the region. The Woodcraft Works of Master Lu Ban Exhibition Room made its public debut after an opening ceremony during the Feast of Lu Ban. The exhibition room sits inside the Carpentry Guildhall, an establishment erected in the Qing Dynasty and is now situated in the Macau peninsula’s bustling downtown.
