Originally conceived by a group of Macao residents and motor fanatics, the Macau Grand Prix began in 1954 as a race for amateur. There are many life-size wax figures on display, the most photographed of which are undoubtedly those of Elizabeth Taylor, Albert Einstein, Michael Jackson, Ronaldinho, Anthony Hopkins and James Bond. The museum offers a number of attractions that make it a real amusement park, which is especially aimed at children and young people. The Amsterdam location of Madame Tussauds Wax Museum has recently been modernised and equipped with multimedia effects and a team of actors and extras. When the museum came under the ownership of Merlin Entertainment, a company involved in the amusement and entertainment industry that also owns Gardaland and Legoland, among others, the management chose to create an all-round immersive business out of the idea of creating wax sculptures. The first Madame Tussauds museum was opened in London and exhibited the artist’s works. The woman was a master in the art of wax modelling, and during her life in Paris she devoted herself to making wax figures of the faces of men, aristocrats and others, who were victims of the French Revolution.Īt the time of her death, her collection numbered around 400 wax works. The idea behind the wax museum was taken from the work of the French artist Marie Tussaud, after whom the museum is named, during the 18th and 19th centuries.
