The Macao Ginza Plaza

#tripblazers #celebratewithtrip #yearofrabbit #newyearadventure #campingglamping #foodie. The six-storey Ginza Plaza shopping centre, just a stone’s throw from Macau’s touristy Senado Square, is struggling to attract retailers and walk-in shoppers, Macau Business reports in its May issue. The Ginza Plaza complex combines housing, shops and a car park in Rua de Pedro Nolasco da Silva. Its position could hardly be better, but after its first year and a half of business, most of the retailing area is empty.

One of the Landmark of Macau

#summertrip #staycations #beyondborders

Five or six decades ago, Rua de Cinco de Outubro was famous and thriving. The department store full of Chinese goods has a strong local atmosphere. Here, you can buy all kinds of domestic products, such as handicrafts, clothing and daily supplies. I recommend the cultural and creative products, the local goods, and the Portuguese wine.

After coming to Macau, I walked out of the island resort and returned to the Macau Peninsula. I felt that I really came to Macau. Fortunately, there was a rain at this time. The city washed by heavy rain was always very cute. also found that some roads in the Macao peninsula and outlying islands are the same name. The road that used to think that the road ring has a very romantic name on the fifth day of October is also seen here. This is my second impression of Macau, or it has more old memories of the city, hidden in the steps between the streets and alleys.

Macau's citywalk is a colorful little island with few people and great photo opportunities

Please, I beg you, stop going to the Ruins of St. Paul to see the crowds. The roads are narrow, the weather is hot, and it's simply not fun. I recommend a less-known citywalk route in Macau, where there are fewer people, good photo spots, and you can even see the sea! ✅citywalk route: Coloane Village ➡️ Lord Stow's Bakery ➡️ Coloane Pier ➡️ Rua do Cunha ➡️ Hac Sa Beach —————— 1️⃣ Starting from the Macau Peninsula, take bus 26A to the "Coloane Village" stop, get off and walk. Along the way, you will pass the main store of Lord Stow's Bakery. You might want to browse first and buy later; their egg tarts are really tasty and won't disappoint. 2️⃣ Continue walking and turn right to enter the pier area. You will pass the Coloane Fishermen's Association, where the blue and yellow houses make a beautiful backdrop for photos. Then, keep going past Coloane Coffee until you reach Coloane Pier. Using a Fujifilm filter and flash for photos can yield great results, and it's very cool and breezy there. Right across is Hengqin Island in Zhuhai. 3️⃣ After visiting, you'll need to return the same way, but the distance is short. As you walk back, you'll see the sea on one side, which is almost dry, and colorful houses on the other. Along the way, there are also some graffiti walls and ice cream shops. Rua do Cunha is right here. 4️⃣ When the sun is not so hot, you can take a bus to Hac Sa Beach, where the final stop of bus 26A is. Although the beach is not very big, it's really quite pleasant and comfortable. There aren't many people, and sitting by the shore, enjoying the sea breeze and daydreaming, makes for another beautiful day.

The 'Historic Centre of Macau' stretches from the Mount Fortress in the east to the Inner Harbour Ferry Terminal in the west, from the A-Ma Temple in the south to the Camoes Garden in the north. It encompasses over 20 historical buildings including the A-Ma Temple, the Maritime Administration Building, St. Dominic's Church, the Ruins of St. Paul's, and the Monte Fort, as well as seven closely connected public squares. The 'Historic Centre of Macau' preserves the essence of over four hundred years of cultural exchange between East and West.
