The beauty of the Love River comes, and the elegant scholars gather.

"The Church of St. Anthony" is located in front of the Senado Square in Macau and is one of the oldest churches in Macau, built by the Jesuits in 1558. It has been destroyed by fire several times in history, and was rebuilt in 1875 to form its current appearance, with its exterior rebuilt in 1930. As St. Anthony is the patron saint of marriage in Catholicism, many Portuguese weddings were held here in the past, with believers dressed in white robes and holding flower branches, hence the popular name "Flower King Church" for this church. The front facade of the church is in neoclassical style, while the interior altar is in Baroque style.
