Macau Ruins of St. Paul's Citywalk | How to get around

| How to get around nearby. Are you still bothering to find a seat when you go to the Ruins of St. Paul’s? I think the Ruins of St. Paul's is beautiful in any photo😏 Well-known The Ruins of St. Paul's in Macau is a must-visit attraction in Macau😆 It is also a representative landmark of Macau🏮 📍About the Ruins of St. Paul’s📍 🌄The Ruins of St. Paul’s comes from the Chinese transliteration of the Portuguese name of St. Paul, São Paulo. It was first built in the 30th year of the Wanli reign of the Ming Dynasty (1602) and was burned down by fire on January 26, the 15th year of the Daoguang reign of the Qing Dynasty (1835), leaving only the Ruins of St. Paul’s archway. 🌄Because the camera was not invented until 1839, later generations have never seen its true appearance. 🌄The carvings and inlays of the Ruins of St. Paul's are very delicate, integrating the essence of Eastern and Western architectural art. It is a work of art that blends Chinese and Western cultures. 🌄The Ruins of St. Paul’s is not only one of the eight scenic spots in Macau, but also a precious world cultural heritage. 🎏Tang Xianzu and the Ruins of St. Paul’s🎏 🌵In November of the 19th year of the Wanli reign (1591), Tang Xianzu stopped by Macau on his way to exile. After witnessing the prosperity of Macau, he wrote about Macau in The Peony Pavilion🌺. 🌵Act 21 of The Peony Pavilion, "The Encounter", Liu Mengmei👣 visits a treasure show in Macau. The first sentence of "Meeting" reads: "I wear a torn cassock and live in Xiangshan. I am a Bodhisattva of many births and many treasures, shining with light. I am the abbot of Duobao Temple in Xiangshan, Guangzhou." 🌵The Duobao Temple mentioned here is the original "Grand Ruins of St. Paul's", which no longer exists. It was built by Portuguese Catholics who came to China to preach. The foundation of the St. Paul's Temple, where the current Ruins of St. Paul's Archway is located in Macau, was actually laid in 1602, and was not fully completed until a few years after Tang Xianzu left. 🆙Must-check in near the Ruins of St. Paul’s🆙 💕Love Lane: The alley on the right side of the Ruins of St. Paul’s is a great place to take photos.
