[2025 Macau Attraction] Travel Guide for St Anthony's Church Macau (Updated Apr)

| Local experiences and practical tips. Just back from Macau! I've compiled a travel guide that combines local characteristics with practical information, sharing real experiences and useful tips: I. Local Food Experiences 1. Classic Snack Shops * Macau's long-established egg waffle shop (Ze Xian Ji): I recommend the original egg waffles, rich in egg and milk flavor. The chocolate flavor is a bit sweet, so choose according to your preference. The average cost is about MOP 25. * Traditional noodle shop (Pak Lok Mun): I recommend the double sauce (curry + beef brisket) thick noodle set meal with iced lemon tea to cut through the richness. It's best to dine during off-peak hours to avoid long queues. 2. Souvenir Selection * Well-known souvenir chain (Koi Kei Bakery): You can try the almond cookies before buying them. The ones with whole almonds are crispy. I recommend comparing offers at different branches, as some offer discounts during certain periods. II. Accommodation Reference Airport Hotel Review: I chose the Hotel Golden Dragon primarily for work reasons. The soundproofing is good (airport noise is not noticeable). Basic rooms are about CNY 500/night. You need to prepare your Entry-Exit Permit for Hong Kong and Macau in advance. There are few dining options nearby, so plan your meals ahead of time. III. Transportation Analysis 1. Free Shuttle Bus: Hotels offer shuttle buses to and from ports of entry. I recommend taking these first. 2. Public Bus System: MOP 6/trip. Download the "DSAT" app to check real-time bus arrivals. 3. Taxis: Regular taxis start at MOP 19. You may need to call a taxi (+MOP 5 service fee) for remote areas like Hengqin. 4. Walking Recommendation: The attractions in the historic city center are concentrated. It's more convenient to walk in comfortable shoes. IV. Practical Tools to Prepare 1. Electronic Payment: Alipay/WeChat covers 90% of transactions. Prepare a small amount of cash. 2. Data Package: I recommend purchasing an overseas data package through your carrier's official app (e.g., China Mobile users can choose the "UPLAN" daily package). 3. Food Delivery Service: You need a Macau mobile phone number to register for local lifestyle platforms. V. Entry and Exit Information 1. Length of Stay: Tourist visas allow a maximum stay of 7 days (calculated from the day after entry). 2. Port of Entry Selection: * 24-hour customs clearance: Hengqin Port, Qingmao Port * For late-night arrivals in Macau, Hengqin is recommended for higher customs clearance efficiency. 3. Required Documents: Keep your Entry-Exit Permit for Hong Kong and Macau and entry slip safe (recommend making a copy on your phone). VI. Tips for Civilized Travel 1. Smoking is completely prohibited in public places (including e-cigarettes), with fines of up to MOP 1,500. 2. Yield to pedestrians at pedestrian crossings. Jaywalking may result in a MOP 300 fine. 3. Sort your trash. Littering in scenic areas can result in fines of up to MOP 600. VII. Recommended Cultural Experiences 1. World Heritage Route: Ruins of St. Paul's → St. Dominic's Church → Senado Square → Guia Fortress, experience Portuguese architecture. 2. Unique Experiences: Taipa Houses-Museum (closed on Tuesdays), colorful houses in Coloane Fishing Village. 3. Portuguese Cuisine Recommendations: Try Bacalhau balls, African Chicken, and other specialties. The average cost is MOP 150-300. Compliance Statement 1. All business information is based on personal consumption experience and does not involve commercial cooperation. 2. Price data is as of December 2023. It is recommended to double-check before traveling. 3. Transportation policies refer to the latest announcements from the Macao SAR Government. 4. The historical city center tour route refers to the recommended route by the Cultural Affairs Bureau of Macao.

#MacauAttractions Passing through the alleys of Macau's old town, St. Anthony's Church is quietly hidden among the green shades, like a contemplative elder, whispering the history and stories of the past. This church is one of the oldest Catholic churches in Macau. Since its establishment in the 16th century, it has witnessed the vicissitudes and prosperity of this land. The exterior walls of the church are mainly off-white, and the simple design reveals a sense of history. The stone steps in front of the door are a bit worn, but it is these traces that tell us that countless believers have prayed silently here. Walking into the hall, although the space is not spacious, it is filled with a sense of tranquility and solemnity. The wooden benches and simple altar decorations exude a classic elegance in a low-key manner. What is most touching is the statue of St. Anthony on the altar, with a kind face and hands slightly spread out, as if welcoming every heart seeking comfort. Outside the window, the green shadows of the trees interweave with the sunlight, adding a quiet beauty to the church. Here, I feel that the flow of time is so gentle that it makes people want to stay longer and savor the quiet time where history and faith are intertwined.

It is a beautiful place located quietly behind the St. Anthony's Church in Macau, and is located next to the Protestant Cemetery. Of course, St. Anthony's Church is also where Father Kim Dae-geon studied, so it is a very meaningful place for Korean tourists.

"The Church of St. Anthony" is located in front of the Senado Square in Macau and is one of the oldest churches in Macau, built by the Jesuits in 1558. It has been destroyed by fire several times in history, and was rebuilt in 1875 to form its current appearance, with its exterior rebuilt in 1930. As St. Anthony is the patron saint of marriage in Catholicism, many Portuguese weddings were held here in the past, with believers dressed in white robes and holding flower branches, hence the popular name "Flower King Church" for this church. The front facade of the church is in neoclassical style, while the interior altar is in Baroque style.
