Macau's St. Lazarus Church and Rua de São Roque

St. Lazarus Church is one of Macau's three ancient churches, originally built in 1568 and later rebuilt in 1886. It features a neoclassical architectural style. The church was once affiliated with a leprosy hospital, earning it the nickname "Leper's Church," and served as a spiritual haven for patients at the time. Today, it is recognized as a cultural heritage site in Macau. Rua de São Roque, on the other hand, is a renowned cultural and creative district in Macau. The street is lined with vibrant Portuguese-style buildings, and its pavement is adorned with black, white, and red mosaic stones, exuding an exotic charm that makes it a perfect spot for photography. Additionally, the Albergue SCM, located at No. 8 Rua de São Roque, boasts a history of over a century. Its courtyard, featuring a massive old camphor tree, adds a serene ambiance. This location is ideal for visitors who appreciate history and art to explore and capture memorable moments.
