2025 Macau Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)

#November Destinations 2025 Fisherman's Wharf is a less-visited attraction on the Macau Peninsula. It's not crowded and there's no entrance fee. If you enjoy photography, it's a great choice. The area isn't large; you can walk around in about 5 minutes, but many of the smaller scenes are photogenic. The Roman Colosseum is one of the most eye-catching attractions in Fisherman's Wharf. Modeled after the ancient Roman Colosseum, it's spectacular and looks like a scene from a movie. With its circular arches and marble-style walls, every tourist taking photos inside feels like they've stepped into Europe. It's perfect for taking beautiful photos and creating a European atmosphere. Fisherman's Wharf Photo Spots: Roman-style Architecture: Corner above the Colosseum Walkway inside the arched doorway on the first floor of the Colosseum (perfect for capturing the beauty of the corner) Opposite the Colosseum viewing platform, next to the outer stairs Wall outside the Colosseum, facing the road Location: Roman Square, Fisherman's Wharf, Macau Admission: Free Transportation: Take the free shuttle bus from any border crossing to the Sands Hotel stop.

#November Destinations 2025 Guia Tower is one of the eight scenic spots of Macau and one of the highest points on the Macau Peninsula. Standing silently for over 400 years, it has witnessed the changing fortunes of Macau. Although not particularly tall, the tower is simple and elegant, blending European architectural styles with local Macau characteristics. Standing beside the tower, the bustling cityscape of Macau in the distance contrasts beautifully with the ancient buildings nearby, creating a unique atmosphere where history and modernity intertwine – every snapshot is a masterpiece. Must-Visit Spots Lighthouse White Wall: The Portuguese-style lighthouse with its yellow stripes and white walls offers a perfect backdrop for photos. Climb the stairs at the back and sit for a picture – incredibly artistic! Observation Deck: Use the trendy chairs as a foreground to view the Grand Lisboa or overlook the old town, offering a panoramic view of the city. Best Time to Visit: Recommended time to visit is between 4 and 6 pm. At this time, the sunlight softens, casting a golden glow on the tower's ancient form – absolutely stunning for photos. With a gentle breeze, you can also enjoy a stunning sunset, the distant city skyline taking on a more captivating glow in the afterglow. Transportation Guide: To reach Guia Lighthouse, visitors can choose to take a taxi or bus. Bus routes: 2, 6, 9, 9A, 12, 17, 18, 19, 22, 23, 28C, 32, 25, 18A, etc., all go directly to Erlonghou Park Station. After getting off the bus, walk 5 minutes to the Songshan Cable Car ticket office. Take the cable car up to Erlonghou Street Park, then walk along the path to Guia Lighthouse.

#November Destinations 2025 The Lou Kau Mansion, located in the Historic Centre of Macau, is a traditional Chinese mansion situated in the heart of the Portuguese-inhabited area. Its architectural layout, structural system, and facade treatment exhibit distinct characteristics of traditional Lingnan residences, reflecting the unique culture and art of Macau at that time. The "three carvings and one sculpture" are the most commonly used decorative techniques in the Lou Kau Mansion's architecture. The three carvings refer to wood carving, stone carving, and brick carving, while the one sculpture refers to plasterwork. The Lou Kau Mansion is a two-story Chinese-style building constructed with thick blue bricks. It is a typical Chinese mansion and a prime example of the gentle and delicate architectural style of late Qing Dynasty Cantonese residences. The mansion has a three-bay, three-courtyard, two-story layout with multiple courtyards, blending Chinese and Western styles to reflect the unique residential architectural culture of Macau. The Lou Kau Mansion is a typical example of the fusion of Chinese and Western cultures in Macau, possessing significant historical and architectural value and serving as an important window into understanding Macau's history and culture. Location: No. 7, Rua do Campo, Sé, Macau Special Administrative Region. Intersection of Rua do Campo and Rua do Campo. Opening hours: 10:00-18:00, last entry at 17:30 Closed on Mondays, open as usual on public holidays.

#NovemberDestinations2025 This year's Christmas atmosphere is 100% intense! I was blown away by Macau's Christmas decorations. The most beautiful one has to be the Christmas tree at the MGM Grand Macau – it's totally my style! An immersive fairytale world! Entering the mall is breathtaking. The 10-meter-tall block Christmas tree is incredibly eye-catching. The colorful blocks are stacked to create a dreamlike effect. Sunlight streams through the glass dome, making every angle feel like stepping into a fairytale book. Looking up, you can see hanging fairy lights and a huge red ball decoration. Every shot looks like a professional photo. Check out these tips: 3-4 pm is the best time to visit. The sunlight shining obliquely on the blocks creates a rainbow halo. You can get a panoramic view of the Christmas tree from the second-floor corridor; remember to use wide-angle mode! The hotel's food is equally unforgettable. Walking along the golden corridor to the "Chun" Chinese restaurant, I ordered the black truffle shrimp dumplings. The moment I bit into them, the rich aroma intertwined with the delicate texture was intoxicating. The foie gras puff pastry tart at the French restaurant "Yaji" is another culinary feast. Free shuttle buses: Shuttle buses to MGM Cotai are available at border crossings such as the Border Gate, Macau Ferry Terminal, Taipa Ferry Terminal, Macau Airport, and Hengqin Port, as well as at MGM Macau and Macau Tower. Please pay attention to the signs on the buses or bus stops.

#November Destinations 2025 The Macao Museum has three floors, comprehensively showcasing Macao's historical evolution and diverse culture—starting from Macao's ancient history, featuring archaeological artifacts. The most attractive items for children are the models of ships used in early Sino-Western trade; the comparison between Zheng He's treasure ships and Portuguese merchant ships is incredibly intuitive, instantly connecting them to the "Maritime Silk Road." First Floor: Macao's Origins and Early History Displays prehistoric civilization, fishermen's lives, and Portuguese maritime trade. Key artifacts include Ming and Qing dynasty porcelain, ancient maps, and early Sino-foreign trade documents. Second Floor: Sino-Western Cultural Fusion Religious art and Macanese culture.

#November Destinations 2025 Enter the lobby from the North Gate of Venice. Follow the arrow → to a hidden passage leading to a small elevator. Go down to the 3rd floor, then through a winding corridor. Push open a fire door, and a magnificent streetscape unfolds before you. Key Attractions and Experiences The must-visit Grand Canal Shoppes is on the third floor, where you can experience a gondola ride: an indoor canal experience with a 24-hour skylight over the canals.

🟣 Visa/Mastercard/Mir cards issued in Russia do not work in China. Foreign cards from banks in CIS countries not subject to sanctions do. It's convenient if you can get one. 🟣 Russian UnionPay cards from Russian Agricultural Bank and Asia-Pacific Bank work in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau. You can withdraw cash from ATMs and pay at terminals that accept UnionPay. While the card works in most cases, it sometimes doesn't work. Small shops often don't have bank card terminals, and only accept QR codes through Alipay or WeChat, or in cash. 🟣 It's convenient to get an Alipay Wallet (in this case, you don't need to link your bank card to Alipay). You can top it up through Sberbank/Tinkoff/VTB using the international transfer feature to China. You can pay with an Alipay QR code anywhere, including in taxis. If you have foreign bank cards, you can link them to Alipay. Any cards issued in Russia cannot be linked to Alipay. Alipay QR code payments are only available in mainland China; this feature is not available for foreigners in Hong Kong and Macau. 🟣 Cash is a must. The ideal combination for mainland China is yuan or yuan plus dollars/euros. When traveling to Hong Kong, it's best to also bring yuan and dollars to exchange for Hong Kong dollars. The best place to exchange in Hong Kong is Chungking Mansions. In Macau, you can use Hong Kong dollars for payments and also exchange yuan/dollars for local patacas. 🟰Bottom line: It's best to bring yuan and dollars, have a Russian Agricultural Bank/Asia-Pacific Bank card, and sign up for Alipay Wallet. ❗️Limits on cash brought into mainland China: 20,000 yuan or $5,000/$5,000 equivalent in another foreign currency.

#NovemberDestinations2025 I never expected the Poly MGM Museum to be so magnificent. The luxurious interior and top-notch exhibition design elevate the overall artistic quality of Macau. In this museum, you don't need to worry about lighting at all, because its glass is reflective, the light sources are hidden, and its display cases, artifacts, silent projections, and murals all share the same color scheme. From any angle, taking photos of the artifacts and exhibition halls will only evoke one word—harmony. This is what a wealthy museum should look like. Must-see at the Poly MGM Museum: The original bronze animal heads from the Yuanmingyuan—the ox, tiger, monkey, and pig—are all here! These national treasures, once looted by the Anglo-French allied forces, have returned to their homeland after a century. The Ukiyo-e style "Night Market on Bridges and Boats" is exquisite and visually stunning. It's recommended to allow at least 3 hours, as each interactive area is worth experiencing. Museum Opening Hours: Monday to Thursday: 11:00 – 19:00; Friday: 11:00 – 21:00; Saturday, Sunday and Public Holidays: 10:00 – 20:00 Museum Address: 2nd Floor, MGM Grand Macau Sky Plaza

#November Good Places 2025 There are two Wynn Hotels in Macau The "Auspicious Tree" and "Rich Dragon" performances at Wynn Macau Hotel are the treasures of Macau's luxury entertainment experience. With their shocking audio-visual feast and auspicious meaning, they have become a must-visit classic item in Macau Entering the hotel atrium, you can see the exquisite ceiling, decorated with reliefs of the twelve Chinese zodiac signs, while the golden roof on the ground is engraved with the twelve constellations of the Western zodiac, cleverly blending the essence of Eastern and Western cultures. The golden hair tree performance is definitely a must-see visual feast of this life, standing under the tree surrounded by 98,000 24K pure gold leaves, the twelve zodiac signs and constellation dome flowing, when the music gradually rises, the golden tree breaks out of the ground, four seasons light and shadow flow between the branches and leaves - green spring, golden summer, silver frost winter, as if space-time magic blooming in front of your eyes Address: Wynn Macau Hotel, Macau The one on this island is not Wynn Palace Performance time: Every hour on the hour, it is recommended to go 10-15 minutes in advance to occupy a good spot

#November Destinations 2025 When visiting Macau Citywalk, Rua do Campo is an unmissable gem. No need to deliberately search for a good spot. You can easily capture stunning National Geographic-worthy photos by the roadside railings or in front of residential alleyways. Narrow alleys stretch into the distance, colorful old buildings contrasting with the glittering Grand Lisboa. By day, it exudes retro charm; at night, the lights add a cyberpunk vibe, creating a naturally captivating atmosphere. Navigate to Rua do Campo, and you can find your perfect spot at the intersection of this alley and Rua do Campo. Walk from northeast to southwest on Rua do Campo to find your ideal vantage point. Tips: Navigate to the Guia Pharmacy; you can take the escalator instead of climbing the hill. Use a 3x or higher zoom on your phone, and at least a medium to long telephoto lens on your camera for this effect. Standing by the railing is enough to take a good photo. Don't cross the yellow line; be careful as there are many vehicles. Nearby Attractions: Guia Lighthouse: From Rua do Campo, walk along the hillside for about 30 minutes to reach the Guia Lighthouse. Rua do Campo, Macau. Be careful! Don't take photos in the middle of the road.

#November Destinations 2025 Our Lady of the Rosary Church, also known as the Church of Our Lady of the Way, is located in the heart of Macau. It is a church steeped in history and boasts a unique architectural style. More than just a religious building, it stands as a witness to Macau's history and culture, attracting countless tourists and devotees. Walking in, you'll find a somewhat dimly lit passageway, completely deserted. Don't be afraid to go straight in; at the end, a young Indian security guard will be standing there waving at you—that's it. There are three floors in total. Be careful climbing the wooden stairs. The paintings, robes, sculptures, and religious artifacts on each floor are absolutely stunning; it's definitely worth a visit. Tips: 1. Do not make loud noises; please keep quiet. 2. Do not wear tank tops, shorts, or vests inside. 3. No eating inside. Our Lady of the Rosary Church Address: Largo do Senado, Rua de São Domingos, Sé district, Macau SAR Transportation: Bus: Take bus lines 2, 3, 3A, 4, 5, or 7 and get off at the Senado Square stop. Then walk along the path to the church. Opening Hours: 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM (Closed on Thursdays)

#November Destinations 2025 As part of the Historic Centre of Macau, Senado Square was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 2005, a unique symbol of Macau's history and culture. Southern European Architecture: The buildings surrounding Senado Square are full of European charm, many of which have been recognized as monumental buildings of architectural value, such as the arcades, providing visitors with a leisure space full of art and history. This area boasts the densest concentration of European-style buildings in Macau, with its iconic wave-patterned cobblestone pavement. The street is short, mainly for taking photos of the buildings on both sides, taking about 10 minutes to walk through. Suitable as a stop before visiting the Ruins of St. Paul's. Tips: Wear comfortable shoes! The paving stones are uneven; high heels are torture! There are street performers on weekends; if you're lucky, you might catch a Portuguese guitar live performance. Transportation: Located in the central district of the Macau Peninsula, it's just a few minutes' walk from the Ruins of St. Paul's, making transportation extremely convenient. The surrounding area is easily accessible, making it super convenient to visit popular attractions or find delicious food.

#November Destinations 2025 Macau's Hidden Gems: Rua da Felicidade (Fengtang Liaisons) – Step into a Southern European fairytale alley. This secluded lane next to the Ruins of St. Paul's uses bright yellow and brick red to evoke the romance of Lisbon, with its artistic cobblestone mosaic paving. Every snapshot is a cinematic masterpiece. Recommended Photo Spots: Colorful Buildings: Against the backdrop of yellow and red Portuguese architecture, every shot is a Southern European masterpiece. Cobblestone Mosaic Pavement: An aerial view of the distinctive Portuguese wavy cobblestone pavement reveals a memorable detail. Grandma's House Courtyard: The yellow buildings and tranquil courtyards are perfect for photos. Streetlights at Night: Warm yellow lights illuminate the alley, creating a wonderful atmosphere. City Walk Recommendation: Rua de João América — Rua do Campo — Rua de São Domingos — Rua de São Domingos — Rua de São Domingos — Rua do Campo — Rua do Campo Rua do Campo, Macau Peninsula Near Ruins of St. Paul's, 10-minute walk Best time for photos: 10:00-16:00 (soft lighting, no backlighting) Tips: There are many niche cafes and creative shops nearby; taking photos with a cup of coffee or milk tea is a relaxing experience.

📌It was like I was in virtual reality: I strolled through several European capitals at once, played poker in the world's largest casino (where, by the way, I won big), had breakfast with a view of Big Ben and the Eiffel Tower, and sailed along the canals of Venice. 📌Arriving in Macau and just getting off the ferry, I immediately noticed the signs in Portuguese. This is no coincidence, as until 1999, Macau was the oldest European colony in East Asia for over 400 years. Now, like Hong Kong, it is designated as a Special Administrative Republic (SAR) of China with its own currency and two official languages: Chinese and Portuguese. 📌Macau's area is only 28 square kilometers, yet the city-state itself is considered the most densely populated on the planet. Macau has the second-highest life expectancy in the world (84.5 years). Thanks to the development of casinos, the city's economy has boomed in recent years, and annual casino revenues sometimes exceed those of Las Beracas. The casino atmosphere deserves special attention. A large amount of Asian money of various origins passes through Macau. There are more than 30 casinos here. 📌 Macau can be as captivating as Las Vegas. This place is interesting not only for avid gamblers but also for ordinary travelers, who can discover China from a completely different perspective. A definite must-see for anyone visiting China. You'll want to return again and again. #Macau

If you're planning a trip to the "Little Portugal"—as I like to call Macau—here's what you need to know: 🟨 Prices in Macau are not like in mainland China Yes, it's more expensive there. In some cases, you can double the prices. Good hotels, especially those in Coloane, start at $100 per night and can go much higher. Dinner in the same area averages around $50 for two people (and that's modest). Shopping is great but pricier than in mainland China. However, tourist buses are free, there are many free shows, the panda park is free, and food courts are a budget-friendly option for meals. 🟨 Money It's best to bring Hong Kong dollars—they're more advantageous. You can buy them at banks. You can also use Chinese yuan, but they are exchanged at a 1:1 rate with HKD, which isn't ideal. You can exchange US dollars for local patacas, but it's not very profitable, and we only needed patacas for public transport. We paid everywhere else with Hong Kong dollars. Union Pay cards work, including those from RSHB, but not everywhere accepts them. When paying, remember to enter two zeros after the 4-digit PIN code for the card to work. 🟨 Maps and navigation Good news—Google Maps works here! Not only does it include all public transport, but it also lists many cafes and restaurants with menus, prices, and reviews. So, just stick to Google Maps. 🟨 Visa No visa is required! It wasn't needed before, and it isn't needed now. 🟨 Language There are two official languages: Portuguese and Chinese (Cantonese dialect). We encountered quite a few people who spoke decent English. It's easier here than in mainland China. Still, it's a good idea to have a translator app on your phone. 🟨 Connectivity The easiest option is to get an e-SIM, but public places generally have good Wi-Fi. Also, WhatsApp, Google, YouTube, and other social media platforms work here, unlike in mainland China. Everything works! 🟨 Transport Taxis are ridiculously expensive—forget about them. The city has buses, both tourist and regular. Tourist buses are free and convenient for getting from one hotel to another, for example, from the historic area to Coloane. There's also an above-ground metro. Regular buses are affordable. Free tourist buses run from the airport, but you can also take a taxi if you prefer—we paid $20 for a 15-minute ride. 🟨 Weather The best time to visit is autumn. We first visited Macau in September. Even in winter, it's much warmer than back home. You won't need a hat, as daytime temperatures are a steady 15–20°C. However, summer is extremely hot and humid, making it quite challenging to be outdoors. That's all we could think of. If you have any questions, feel free to ask, and we'll try to help with advice. 💛 And as always, travel far and wide.

Address: Ground Floor, No. 7 Rua da Felicidade, Macau Bali BBQ Fusion Restaurant - Chef Newley. The decor is simple, and the menu focuses on Southeast Asian-style BBQ dishes, each offering delightful surprises. It's perfect for gatherings with friends! Signature Grilled Pork Ribs A must-try! The pork ribs are grilled to a slightly charred perfection on the outside, with incredibly tender meat that falls off the bone with a bite. The sauce is rich and flavorful, with a sweet and savory taste that perfectly matches Macau's local palate. The set meal includes fries and a drink. Highly recommend the pork ribs. The prawn pasta is relatively ordinary but still decent. The satay skewers are aromatic, with a flavorful satay sauce and tender meat, perfectly paired with turmeric rice. Highly recommend the craft beers, which come in a wide variety and are a must-try. The restaurant is small but offers comfortable seating and a Bali vacation vibe in its decor. The food quality is excellent, and the staff are attentive.

#NovemberDestinations2025 The New Central Hotel stands out as one of Macau's most distinctive hotel landmarks. Built in 1928, it has changed hands and closed several times, but its recent renovation has garnered numerous international design awards. The design team transformed the rich local culture into an extraordinary accommodation experience. Set against the backdrop of Macau from the 1920s to the 1940s, the hotel breaks away from traditional design narratives to recreate its historical trajectory. The service also strives to immerse guests in the vintage atmosphere, offering services such as a collaboration with a cheongsam photography studio, traditional Portuguese afternoon tea, and a 1928 rooftop jazz night. The hotel's warm and welcoming hospitality perfectly reflects the local character.

Although the hotel is somewhat aged, it has been newly renovated. The location is excellent, with a bus stop right outside, plenty of food options nearby, and it's very close to the Ruins of St. Paul's. Next door is Ponte 16. Surprisingly, I booked a room on Sunday night via Trip.com using a promo code, and it only cost HKD 300 including tax. Such a great deal! Check-in was simple and quick, and the front desk staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the price was very reasonable. The bathroom even had a bathtub. The room was clean and tidy, with all the necessary amenities, including a fridge and a safe. The only downside was that the showerhead in the bathroom was fixed. The Wi-Fi was strong, and the new renovations included USB ports, which were very convenient.

Macau, a former Portuguese colony, exudes a stronger European vibe compared to Hong Kong. As Christmas approaches, the streets and alleys of Macau are adorned with sparkling decorations, hosting a variety of exciting celebrations to enjoy the festive December winter. Macau also features special Christmas markets, including a small handmade market at the Taipa Houses and, later in the season, the grand European-style Christmas Village Market at Tap Seac Square. It's the perfect time to immerse yourself in the lively holiday atmosphere in Macau.

Have you ever seen water come alive and dance? 💃🏻🌊 I thought I had seen it all, but "The House of Dancing Water" show at City of Dreams is beyond imagination. It's not just a circus performance; it's a grand theatrical legend of love, strength, and magic. Why it's a must-see in Macau: ✅ Spectacular stage: A transformer pool 8 meters deep that instantly turns into a dry platform. One moment, performers are diving from great heights, and the next, they're executing acrobatic stunts! ✅ World-class acrobats and divers: From all over the globe, showcasing superhuman flexibility and fearlessness. It's breathtaking! ✅ A story understood without words: Beautiful, emotional, and universal. Perfect even if you don't know Chinese or English. ✅ Non-stop spectacle: Fiery rain, aerial stunts, incredible costumes, and special effects. Your eyes won't know where to look! These are the most impressive 90 minutes in Macau that you'll remember forever. 💡 Important tips for visiting: 🎟 Tickets: Buy ONLINE IN ADVANCE. This is a highly popular show, and good seats sell out quickly. Check for promotions on the City of Dreams hotel website and trip.com. 📍 Seat selection: The best view is from sections A and B (central, but not the front rows, e.g., rows 10-15). Sections C and D are on the sides, and the view might be slightly restricted. Front rows (VIP) – be prepared to get splashed by the "waves"! 🌊 🕐 Timing: Arrive at least 30-40 minutes before the start. You'll have time to find your entrance, check your coat, and immerse yourself in the atmosphere. 🚌 Getting there: Free shuttles run to the City of Dreams hotel from major ferry terminals, the airport, and the border crossing. Look for a bus labeled "City of Dreams." 🍽 Before or after: The complex has many excellent restaurants to complete this unforgettable evening. If you're in Macau, don't miss this masterpiece!

Guys, did you know that it only takes five hours to fly from Vladivostok to the "Little Portugal"? You can board a plane in our chilly city in the evening and find yourself in sunny and warm Macau, also known as Aomen. And for some reason, many people think it's all about casinos there (though we'll talk about them too), but here are 10 unique reasons why you should visit Macau at least once in your life: 1️⃣ Experience Portugal Without Leaving Asia As you know, traveling to Europe is not so easy for us right now. But getting to Little Portugal? No problem! A direct flight from Vladivostok, and you're walking on cobblestone streets, surrounded by azulejo tiles, pastel-colored houses, and the aroma of authentic pastéis de nata (those divine egg tarts). The architecture, Portuguese signs, and the cuisine—mmm... clams in white wine, you get the idea! 2️⃣ Witness the Scale of the World's Gambling Capital People call it the "Las Vegas of Asia," but that's an understatement, folks. Seriously. The revenue of local casinos far surpasses that of Vegas. There are entire city-complexes: Venice, Paris, palaces, shows, fountains, and all of it much newer than in Vegas. 3️⃣ Enjoy Spectacular Free Shows In the hotel-casinos, you can spend an entire day as if you're in a museum, watching performances. Singing fountains, light shows, dancing dragons—all for $0. (If you need, I can compile a list of the most spectacular ones with their schedules.) 4️⃣ Take a Leap from the World's Tallest Bungee Jump Tower Macau Tower is the adrenaline hotspot of our planet. You can jump from a height of 233 meters—it's the highest commercial bungee jump in the world. We couldn't muster the courage, but we were mesmerized watching the daredevils from the tower's observation deck (by the way, it offers the best view of the city). 5️⃣ Escape Winter to Warmth While northern China is freezing, Macau enjoys temperatures of +18°C to +25°C and sunny weather. It's a perfect place to warm up even in January or February. 6️⃣ Visit Hong Kong in the Same Trip Between Macau and Hong Kong lies a grand bridge-tunnel spanning 55 km. A comfortable bus will take you from one point to the other in about an hour, and no visa is needed. Two completely different worlds in one trip—how's that for a plan? 7️⃣ Experience "China, But Not Quite" Macau has its own rules (and even laws). Google, YouTube, and WhatsApp work here. You can conveniently plan routes using Google Maps. They have their own currency—patacas (MOP), Portuguese signs, and you can hear the soft Portuguese "sh" sounds in conversations everywhere. 8️⃣ Taste Unique Macanese Cuisine This isn't Chinese or Portuguese cuisine. It's their unique fusion—Macanese cuisine. You absolutely must try: 🔻 Chicken stewed in a spicy sauce with coconut milk (Galinha à Africana) 🔻 Noodle soup with pieces of meat (Mian Zhi) 🔻 And a dessert made of whipped cream, crushed biscuits, and sugar—mmm... serradura. I remember we attended a masterclass and even learned to make it ourselves—it's very simple. Let me know if you need the recipe. 9️⃣ Discover the Hidden Side of Macau We loved wandering off the tourist streets in the Coloane area or on Taipa Island—oh my, it's so cozy there—charming courtyards, the smell of pasta sauce wafting from apartment windows. And don't miss the sunset on a hill overlooking the city lights, or spend the evening in a small family-run Portuguese café with just a few tables, sipping white wine with clams in cream sauce until late at night. 🔟 Fill Your Phone with Colorful Photos Macau is incredibly photogenic, and we absolutely love it for that. Squares, old neighborhoods, casino lights, colonial houses, waterfronts—there's plenty to capture with your camera. And there's always something happening in Macau—be it the Macau Grand Prix, a month-long light show, or an arts festival—boredom is not an option. And don't believe anyone who says one day is enough in Macau—it isn't! Macau is so diverse; we've been there twice for five full days each time and still didn't manage to see everything we planned. So, we want to go back again! Is Macau on your list? Or have you already been? Share your favorite spots, and as always, travel longer and farther! 💬 Yours, Yuyu
