Near Senado Square...Citywalk

#Overseas travel #Macau #Macau Historic District It is said that the name originated from when Portuguese merchants arrived at the port of the Macau Peninsula and asked the locals for the name, and the locals, mistakenly thinking that they were curious about the name of the port, answered 'A ma gao (亞媽跑)'. It is said that the Portuguese merchants pronounced the Chinese pronunciation of the locals in a Portuguese way, and it became 'Macau'. The old Portuguese spelling is 'Macau', but the official spelling designated by the government since 2016 is 'Macao'. In reality, it is still often used interchangeably. In Chinese, it was called 'Omun (澳門)' because it was located at the mouth of the Pearl River in the Guangdong region, and it was known as a gateway to trade. There are many local alleys and restaurants in the alleys centered around St. Paul's Cathedral, so take your time looking around..
