A must-visit for Macau is St. Lawrence's Church📸

#September Good Places 2025 The Church of St. Old Lantau in Macau is a Portuguese-style church with an elegant classical appearance and the atmosphere of a small European town church. It is perfect for a quiet visit and photography. The church is located on Feng Shun Tang Street. The surrounding streets are quiet, so you don't have to travel hard. You feel a little foreign when you walk there. Suggested tour route: You can walk over from the new road, passing through several old streets and feeling the characteristics of Macau's old town. If you are not in a hurry, you can slowly enjoy the residences and old shops around the church, which has a retro atmosphere. There is a small square across from the church, where you can sit down and eat an ice cream and take pictures. Must-play items: 1. The church front photo: The front architecture of St. Old Lantau is classical Portuguese style, whether in the morning or dusk, the light and shadow shine down is very beautiful. Remember to take a panorama from the main entrance. 2. Interior visit: If the opening hours correspond, you can enter to admire the sculptures, stained glass inside the church, and feel the traditional religious art. 3. Artistic details: The window grilles and the bell tower are the focus of photography, delicate and elegant, suitable for close-up shooting. 4. Stroll in the alleys: There are several narrow Portuguese-style stone roads near the church, suitable for walking and taking photos. Tips and Notes: 1. Opening hours: year-round 07:00-21:00 (Saturday and Sunday 07:00-18:00; Monday to Friday 07:00-21:00). There are fewer people arriving early, so it's not easy to get into the camera. 2. Dress: It is recommended to dress appropriately, avoid shorts, vests, respect religious places. 3. Avoid the peak season: Holidays may be more people photographing wedding dresses or checking in, morning or weekdays less crowded. 4. Quiet visits: Keep quiet and respectful to other worshipers when entering the church. 5. Photography Rules: Photography may be limited during some periods. St. Old Lantau is one of the few churches in Macau where you can feel the Portuguese cultural atmosphere. Whether you are looking for tranquility, cultural experience, or simply taking beautiful photos, it is definitely worth a visit!
