Goodbye, Macau Jockey Club! Passing by on the light rail, this scene brought back so many memories! 🎬🏇

#November Good Places 2025 Today I took the Macau Light Rail through the "Jockey Club Station" and looked at the empty but still magnificent green runway underneath. I was really shocked. It was once one of the liveliest horse racing sanctuaries in Asia, carrying 44 years of history and fanfare. Although the sound of horse hooves can no longer be heard, looking at those stands and huge screens, you can still feel the brilliance and dominance of those days! 🏟️ Especially with the splendid Galaxy Hotel in the background, the contrast between old and new is super strong. This is not just an attraction, but also a microcosm of an era in Macau. Be sure to take a second look when passing by and keep this history in your mind! ⸻ 📝 Macau Jockey Club (old site) photo tips (super practical!) • 🚝 Best view on the light rail: It is highly recommended to take the "Macau Light Rail (Taipa Line)" and shoot the entire racecourse from a high position in the carriage for the most invincible view! • 🚉Jockey Club Station check-in: The exit of the Light Rail "Jockey Club Station" is Covina Road, where you can take pictures with the huge stands on the flyover. • 🏨 Contrast between old and new: Find an angle to shoot the "old racing club" with the super luxurious "Macau Galaxy" behind, this sense of conflict is super story. • 🚶 Shun Yau Street: After taking pictures, walk to the next Guan Ye Street to eat egg tart, pork chop bun, probably only 10-15 minutes. • 🤫 Do not break in: The park is currently closed and handed over to the government. Although the competition is over, this legendary landmark is still worth a shot. If you want to witness the changes in Macau, you must not miss it! 🏇🎞️✨

🇲🇴One-Day Trip from Guangzhou to Macau: A Perfect Blend of Sightseeing, Shopping, and Coffee If you're visiting Guangzhou and have a day to spare, a trip to Macau is a fantastic way to experience a mix of history, modernity, shopping, and relaxation. The journey from Guangzhou to Macau is quick and easy, and you can make the most of your day with this itinerary. Getting to Macau: Start your day at Guangzhou South Railway Station (Guangzhou Nan). The high-speed train to Zhuhai takes about one hour. Upon arrival at Zhuhai, head to the Gongbei Border Crossing (拱北口岸) to cross into Macau. The border process is simple, and once you exit, you'll find a variety of free shuttle buses heading to popular spots in Macau, such as Sands, MGM Macau, and StarWorld Hotel. ☕️Afternoon coffee: Upon arriving at StarWorld Hotel, stop by the Passion Café for a delicious coffee break. It’s a great spot for a quick bite, offering freshly baked pastries, light salads, and the best hot chocolate. Try it! Explore the Historic Heart of Macau: After your coffee, head out for a leisurely walk. Start by passing the iconic Lisboa Casino — the first-ever casino in Macau. From there, make your way to the Ruins of St. Paul's, a must-see landmark and a symbol of Macau's unique blend of Portuguese and Chinese heritage. 🛍️Shopping and Sightseeing in the New Part of Macau: Next, head to the newer part of the city, Taipa, by taking one of the free shuttle buses or a local bus for just 6 MOP. In Taipa, make sure to visit The Venetian Macau for a unique shopping experience. Wander through its canals, lined with designer shops and charming streets beneath a man-made sky — it's an unforgettable sight. 🎰If you're feeling lucky, you can try your hand at one of the casinos here, or simply continue exploring. From The Venetian, you can move to The Londoner or Galaxy to enjoy more luxury shopping and entertainment options. Dining Recommendations: 🍲For dinner, treat yourself to some fine dining at one of the following restaurants: Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill at The Londoner (for a gourmet experience) Teppanyaki Shou at Raffles at Galaxy (for a thrilling teppanyaki meal) The Tasting Room – Prime Steak & Grill at Nüwa (for a high-end steak dinner) ✨Evening Entertainment: If you have some time left, don’t miss House of Dancing Water at City of Dreams, a stunning water-based show that runs daily at 5:00 PM and 8:00 PM. Be sure to buy tickets in advance, as it’s a popular attraction. Before you end your day, take a ride on the Wynn Palace funicular for a scenic view of the city. The highlight is the free Wynn Fountain Show, which you can enjoy while taking in the beautiful lights and water features of the hotel. 🏨Where to Stay in Macau: For a luxurious stay, I recommend the Morpheus Hotel, which offers exceptional service and cutting-edge design. If you're looking for something more affordable, Grand Dragon Hotel provides great value without sacrificing comfort. #macautravel#casino#asiatrip
