In 2023, we can fly freely again! The first stop is to go to neighboring Macau 🇲🇴. ✅Itinerary route D1: Check in at MGM Macau - Avenida Dr. Sun Yat Sen D2: Take a photo and check in 📸 Parisian Garden - Londoner - Coloane Island. D3: October 5th Street - Bishop's Hill Chapel - Yiwan Slope D4: Fisherman's Wharf - Ruins of St. Paul's - Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro ✅Clearance port Go to Macau Peninsula: Gongbei Port and Qingmao Port. Tested personally, Gongbei has more direct shuttle buses to hotels, while Qingmao is faster but does not have shuttle buses. ✅About accommodation This time I stayed at the MGM, an art palace, and the service and environment were really amazing! ✅About attractions 1⃣️Living in MGM allows you to see various art exhibitions and take great photos. 2️⃣️"Fisherman's Wharf", although small, can easily produce great photos. 3️⃣️Londoners, European-style architecture, super popular online check-in spot, expect long queues, not recommended to visit during holidays. 4️⃣Parisian Gardens, where you can check off the Eiffel Tower and experience French style. 5️⃣Guanye Street, the colorful houses are great for taking photos, but for food you can go elsewhere, there are just too many people here 😂. 6️⃣Dongwangyang New Street, take photos of the same style as National Geographic at the Grand Lisboa, there's not much to do here, only suitable for taking pictures and checking in. ✅About food October 5th Street: Nanping Yaxu, Niuji Curry Cuisine, Street Desserts. Around San Ma Lou: Century Coffee, Ming Kee Offal Cuisine, Longhua Tea House, Huan Ji Seafood Restaurant, Cai Shen Ye Seafood Stew Restaurant, Ma Qing Kang South Sky Cafe. Heisha Huan: A Brother's Delicious Food Taipa: Hei Lian Coffee, Eslite Coffee, Andrew's Road Central Branch, Ya Qi Garden Restaurant. 1️⃣Ma Qingkang South Heaven Cafe Always queuing, even when there is a significant decrease in visitors during off-season, it still requires queuing! 🔥Must-try: BBQ pork with double eggs rice, crispy fried squid, scrambled egg with beef and rice noodles, Hong Kong-style milk tea. . 2️⃣ Ze Xian Ji Also a must-try for those who love queuing: "Portuguese egg tarts with egg waffles". The egg waffle has a super crispy outer layer, and when you bite into it, you'll taste the rich and creamy Portuguese egg tart filling! They also come in flavors like coffee, caramel, cheese, salted egg yolk, purple sweet potato, and taro paste. . 3️⃣Jinli Restaurant What most people recommend here are the Chicken and Shrimp with Double Sauce and the Curry Beef Brisket Rice. The curry is really fragrant and rich, and the soup base will give you a stunning feeling! Be sure to pair it with their homemade spicy sauce! Absolutely amazing! . 4️⃣Bailemen Noodle Shop After 5pm, the store will be closed, so if you want to eat, you have to come early! We recommend the pork chop with oil noodles and beef with noodles. The noodles are very fragrant with added pork oil, and they go well with curry sauce. . 5️⃣ Rongji Beef Offal Macau's beef offal is all amazing, but I have a special fondness for this one! I love their spicy sauce, and you have to add noodles to cook with it!

Just save it!! The spots are all near the Ruins of St. Paul's Avoid the crowds and capture the comic-like summer of Macau...

Rua da Guia in Macau is filled with old buildings, and the roads are steep and narrow, making driving a nerve-wracking experience. Walking into these ancient streets and alleys is like falling into an old dream of prosperity, and it's hard not to be moved. It is the preferred filming location for the Grand Lisboa and also a classic spot for National Geographic magazine, perfectly positioning the Grand Lisboa amidst residential buildings, creating a unique and striking contrast.

I've been eyeing this spot for a long time! After much research on how to capture a blockbuster effect, I'm here to share some solid experience with my buddies! 🏢Let's start with what this is🏢 It's the flower of the Macau Peninsula, the Grand Lisboa Hotel, you know it, right? There's a photo that went viral claiming to be taken by a National Geographic photographer, capturing a century of Macau's streetscape and this enchanting building in one frame, and I'm here to replicate that shot! 🖍️But to be honest, as meticulous as I am, I tried to find the original photo for comparison, but couldn't find it 🤷🏻‍♂️, so I'm not sure about its authenticity. If anyone has that photo, please post it in the comments, thanks. 🗺️Next, where is it🗺️ On 【Rua da Esperança】 in the Macau Peninsula, this is the address most guides will give you. But Rua da Esperança, no matter how short, is still a street, and not every angle is beautiful～ Tested: Search for 【Hotel Royal】 in your navigation🧭, a very small hotel, and the area near this hotel offers a view of the elegant curve of the street and the complex facades of buildings, especially with a pedestrian crossing in the foreground, highlighting the urban vibe～ (If you mind the Vita Milk advertisement nearby, you might want to give up the zebra crossing) 📸Photography Tips📸 1️⃣Have the person stand close to or slightly in front of the zebra crossing, and when taking the shot, make sure the person occupies a smaller proportion of the composition, which means the camera should be positioned further away, to give a more imposing feel with the Grand Lisboa in the background. 2️⃣For an empty street shot, wait for one or two motorcycles with Macau characteristics to pass by (there are many) to add a sense of story to the scene. 3️⃣Post-processing and color grading are very important. 4️⃣A better position for portraits is in the middle of the road, but please be very careful ⚠️ about safety and not to cause trouble by blocking the road. 🧿Other Tips🧿 However, take your time to walk and look around, and discover your own favorite angles, which might be a more meaningful way to check in～ There are also other popular photo spots on this street, worth trying out, and of course, many other scenes worth capturing. (These few shots are basically raw phone photos + template color grading, just to give an idea, I'll edit them properly in the official travelogue later. flag)

After visiting Rua do Cunha, the person involved expressed extreme regret: I regret why I didn't come earlier! It's really too good for taking pictures! 1️⃣ Location: There are mainly two shops where I took photos, the first one is Rua do Cunha, the whole street can capture the Grand Lisboa, it's just a matter of angle and size, directly at Kim Viet Vietnamese Beef Noodles (Rua do Cunha branch) you can get the National Geographic same camera position The second position is in pictures 2️⃣3️⃣4️⃣, located on the Guia Lighthouse, it's a small park, and in the big summer, it even requires me to climb the mountain, really exhausting, but the scenery is really worth it 2️⃣ How to get there: Take the 'get rich' bus from Gongbei Port to Grand Lisboa Hotel, then navigate directly, it's a bit tiring to go up, all uphill, but worth it 3️⃣ Precautions: My advice is: beware of ⚠️ heatstroke! I lost my hat in Zhuhai in the summer, only left with a woolen hat, plus the sun was very harsh, wore sun protection clothing, and long pants, I really felt like I was dehydrated by four or five jin! 4️⃣ Total cost: Money spent 0, life of the feet reduced by one year

🇲🇴The daytime Macau and the nighttime Macau are really different! 🎆The charm of the world during the day is also very fascinating~ 📍Dongwangyang New Street (Picture 2⃣️-5⃣️) This is definitely the best place to shoot the new Lisboa!! It's no wonder it was selected by National Geographic! It's super good to shoot! Any casual shot looks good!! The old city houses on both sides and the new Lisboa in the back form a stark contrast~ Don't miss this spot when you come to Macau!! 📍Central Business Center (Picture 6⃣️) I just took a casual shot while waiting for the traffic lights here, and it turned out to be pretty good! 📍Ruins of St. Paul (Picture 7⃣️) In the Cannon Park next to the Ruins of St. Paul. 📷Macau is really good to shoot, you can find good spots just by walking around!

Macau🇲🇴 doesn't have many places where you can climb high and look far. As the highest point on the Macau Peninsula, Dong Wang Yang Mountain is an excellent place to watch the sunset. 🚡Dong Wang Yang Fort: Originally a fort, it was used for defense against foreign invasions and as an observation post. It has always been listed as a military restricted area, and outsiders are not allowed to enter without approval, except on August 5th, the birthday of the Virgin Mary, and the Double Ninth Festival in the lunar September. In 1976, when the Portuguese army withdrew from Macau, the fort💥 was opened as a tourist spot and still maintains its original appearance. The fort is home to the Church of Our Lady of the Snows and the Dong Wang Yang Lighthouse. As a Portuguese colonial building, the white walls with light yellow lines make the overall architecture very fresh and photogenic. From the top of the mountain, you can overlook the whole of Macau, facing the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge to the east and the city to the west. When the sun sets, the city side is bathed in the sunset, making it an ideal place to watch the sunset. 🕰 Business hours: 9:00-18:00, the entrance to the fort is closed, but Dong Wang Yang Mountain is open all night. Remember, if it's winter, the closing time is earlier than sunset, don't just go down the mountain, you can continue to watch the night view outside the wall of the lighthouse. 📷 Camera position: First of all, you need a medium to long focus, preferably with a lens focal length of 85 or above, to better capture the sunset. 1️⃣ If it's not closed, the best camera position is on the highest platform, not only without the obstruction of trees, but also with the lower platform as the foreground, you can shoot people and the New Lisboa in the same frame; 2️⃣ After closing, walk to the left of the exit, and you will see a row of long benches where you can enjoy the scenery. This is also a good place for photography, not only can you include more of the Macau Tower, but also sitting on the bench, you can beautifully embrace the sunset. ❗Finally, at the foot of Dong Wang Yang Mountain, there is a new street called Dong Wang Yang. Before climbing the mountain, you can also come here to check in. This is a classic camera position for National Geographic magazine, although it has been over-photographed, it is indeed very photogenic. If the neon lights of the New Lisboa light up at night, combined with the surrounding old buildings, it gives a very cyberpunk feel.

Recently, I've been particularly fond of strolling and eating in the old streets of Macau. 1⃣️Here is a strong atmosphere of life. 2️⃣️Love to explore various specialty foods in old streets. 3️⃣️You can capture unique Macau architecture. ❤️❤️❤️ Today I'm sharing a route of the old streets in Macau that I like to walk. (I didn't intentionally remember the street names, later I looked up the place names on the photo album map) 📷 🌟After entering the border from Gongbei You can take a car to 1⃣️Wynn Macau or 2⃣️The Venetian Macao. Then use your phone's navigation to walk to "Dong Wangyang New Street". 🌟You can take super cool photos of the old street and the new Grand Lisboa Hotel on Dongwangyang New Street. Many people come here to take photos. The best spot is around the "Jin Yue Yue Nan Beef Noodle" shop, which is also one of my favorite places. I love their raw beef rice. 🌟[Jin Yue Vietnamese Beef Noodle] This shop is about 10 meters away from a cool urban U-shaped road. The map shows it as [Luo Xianxin Street], a stone slab staircase. There are seats on the road that are very suitable for taking photos. There are characteristic Portuguese cuisine and specialty tea restaurants on both sides of the road, worth a try. 🌟Cross the street on the elevator at Luo Xianxin Street, then turn right and walk to the right side. This is Shui Keng Wei Street, where there are many sports brand stores, all the way to Holland Park Commercial Center, where there are many sports brand stores. 🌟Walk to the vicinity of Holland Park, and turn into "Fengtang New Street" where there are some trendy brand stores. If there are discounts, the cost performance is very high. Then keep walking to "Fengtang Diagonal Alley" where there are churches, unique buildings, creative shops, and cafes. It is very suitable for taking photos and checking in. 🌟Follow the stairs along "Fengtang Slope" and walk up to the three-way intersection towards "Gaoyuan Street". There are some Macau specialty shops on both sides of the road, and the products feel good. There is a delicious "Cheong Chau Ai Kwan Zhen Zheng Nuo Mi Zi" behind the Ruins of St. Paul's. When you get here, you are only 3-4 hundred meters away from the Ruins of St. Paul's. 🌟Walking out of "Rua da Felicidade", you can take some photos near the Ruins of St. Paul's. The windows on the second floor of Uniqlo, the right alley of Rua da Felicidade, and the Love Lane all have good photo spots. 🌟Then continue along "Rua da Ribeira do Patane", there are many specialty shops selling dried meat, cakes and pastries on both sides. Then I will slowly walk to "Rua da Felicidade", where there are many beef offal shops, just look for the one with a long queue. Order a $40 cowboy beef offal and eat slowly. Crossing "Rua da Felicidade" is the main church of Macau, which is also suitable for taking photos. 🌟Then walk south along the "Lobby Diagonal Alley", look up and you can see the Grand Lisboa, and soon you will arrive at the "Grand Lisboa". 🌟Then find the fortune bus nearby and take it to Guanzha or Taipa. 📢PS: Friendly reminder, be sure to wear comfortable shoes because the walking time is long and tiring. 🌟
