崗頂前地周圍至少有四處出名的建築，屬於澳門世界遺產歷史城區的組成部分：何東圖書館、聖若瑟修院、聖奧斯丁堂和崗頂劇院。崗頂劇院(Teatro de Pedro V)（中文正名為伯多祿五世劇院；另稱馬蛟戲院、崗頂波樓），是位於澳門崗頂前地的古老劇院，被認定為中國第一所西式劇院。2005年作為澳門歷史城區的部分被列入世界文化遺產名錄內。

崗頂劇院是澳門最古老的劇院，起名起的稀疏平常，因為它恰恰就在一座小山坡頂，是為崗頂，但確確是個小而美的所在。十數年前我尋尋覓覓第一次來到這裏，阿三門衛倒也好講話，先解釋了正是休息日不能進去，還是任我走進院子里拍了建築外觀。今次有緣走進劇院，果真是又舊又美啊！

崗頂劇院是澳門歷史街區的一部分，原名伯多祿五世劇院，是中國第一座西式劇院，始建於1860年，目前屬於世界遺產名錄的一部分。其位置位於議事廳前地的西南側，距離聖老楞佐堂不遠。

There are few tourists around Gangding Theater, so you can slow down and stroll leisurely. The theatre is not big. It is known as the earliest Western-style theatre in China. It is still in use today. On the same day, there are middle-aged and old people rehearsing Cantonese opera in the hall and young people rehearsing on the stage. After visiting the theatre, you can continue to visit the historical building He Dong Library.

In a green theatre on a high platform, it is said that it has a history of more than 100 years, but from the appearance, the protection is still very good. There are no performances during the day, so you can visit them at will. Once in, it seems to have come to Europe in the 19th century, and the scenes seem to be reproduced in the movies. Maybe from a modern point of view, the theatre capacity is not particularly large, but I think it's a blessing for the residents around Macau to have such an old theatre still in operation in the old city.

原稱伯多祿五世劇院，建於1860年，但當時只建成主體部分，至1873年才加建具新古典主義建築特色的正立面。他是中國第一所西式劇院，供戲劇以及音樂會演出用，也是當年葡人社群舉行重要活動的場所，其建築設計為新古典希臘復興風格。開放時間10:00-18:00劇院的的外觀是薄荷綠色非常養眼，裏面的保安服務非常好，我們問了很多景點都很耐心地和我們解說。我們趁沒人還在一邊拍起了照片。
