Macau is a city well-suited for CityWalks, and the Portuguese Charm of Taipa Village is one of the eight scenic spots in Macau. It used to be the residence of high-ranking officials on the islands and also the family homes of the Macanese, with its mint green color being very refreshing. The transformed museum houses a collection of distinctive furniture from the late 19th century. Being there, one can relive the domestic life of the Macanese in the early 20th century. By the lake, the row of five houses looks particularly attractive, with the innermost one being the most appealing. Surrounding the area are ancient banyan trees and charming hand-painted walls. Next to it is the St. Francis Xavier's Church, and nearby Rua do Cunha is a famous food street in Macau, offering many local snacks and Michelin-starred cuisine.

#timetotravel Upon entering the Taipa Houses Museum, I was immediately transported back in time. The museum features a cluster of five traditional green-colored colonial houses, each one representing a different architectural style and period. The well-preserved structures instantly evoke a sense of wonder and curiosity. Inside the houses, I discovered meticulously restored interiors that transport visitors to a bygone era. The period furniture, antique artifacts, and informative displays offered a fascinating insight into the lives of the families who once occupied these spaces. Beyond the historical significance, the Taipa Houses Museum also hosts regular exhibitions, cultural activities, and workshops that further enrich the visitor experience. Most of all, it is free admission so it can be enjoyed by all. Nearest Subway Station: Taipa Village Station Station E2 #mytripvlog #tripblazers

National Geographic Magazine award-winning location, looking east towards Ocean New Street, daytime view. Mint green Architecture Museum, Taipa Dragon Ring Portuguese-style residential museum. Macau is not a big place, and the shops on the street are basically the best of the best. Not far from the hotel is this familiar street, which was named after a certain film and television work, "October Fifth Street". On the fifth day of October, I turned into a small alley and discovered a snack shop. When writing my travelogue, I found that many people had already explored this shop (it seems like everyone has thoroughly explored Macau). The storefront is very small, and the products are neatly stacked. They sell small snacks like peanuts and nuts. The storefront looks like it has been around for a long time, giving a nostalgic feeling. Don't miss it if you have the chance to come.

There is a special museum in Macau - the Lou Kau Mansion, located on the seaside road of Taipa Island. It covers an area of about 2500 square meters, with an exhibition area of about 500 square meters. It includes five Portuguese-style houses on the seaside road, the St. Lawrence's Church, the Macau Civil Registry Office (formerly the Ka Mok Library), and two small parks. Especially the Portuguese-style buildings along the seaside road, these five small green villas are important cultural relics and cultural heritage in Taipa, and they are also one of the most representative scenic spots in Macau. Because of their high appearance value, they are particularly photogenic. The dreamy colors of macarons are indeed very suitable for taking pictures. After visiting the architecture, take a walk in the wetlands. The Long Huan Portuguese-style Wetland covers an area of 115,000 square meters and is the most important natural freshwater wetland in Macau. Don't be fooled by its unremarkable appearance. Near the Datanshan Mountain on the edge of the wetland, there is a forest covering an area of over 19,000 square meters with dense vegetation, attracting a large number of egrets to inhabit and breed. This is one of the unique landscapes of Macau. You can also take a ride on the Grand Taipa Hill Inclined Elevator if you have time. This is the first inclined elevator in Macau. Going up, you can overlook the tourist and entertainment hotel buildings and scenery in the Cotai area, and it's free. There is also the Our Lady of Carmel Church, the only Catholic church in Taipa, which was built in 1885. The building has three floors and looks simple and quaint on the outside, without too much fancy decoration, but it appears exceptionally elegant and solemn. The beige exterior walls have some mottled marks. Across from the church is the civil registration bureau. It used to be a library, but now it's a place to register for marriage. The day we went, there were many couples registering. In Macau, it is common to find roads paved with stone mosaics, which exude a strong Portuguese style. Next to the Long Chuan Portuguese style, a beautiful mosaic staircase was discovered, and this place is somewhat hidden with few tourists, making it perfect for taking photos! It may become a new popular spot for social media check-ins. Address: Avenida Marginal de Taipa, Macau.

The scenic spot is located in Taipa Island, Macau. It includes the Dragon Ring Portuguese Museum, the Carmen Church, the Taipa Library, the Taipa Municipal Garden and the Cross Garden. It is one of the eight scenic spots in Macau. The museum consists of five Portuguese-style houses built in the 20th century. The exterior walls are mainly Tiffany green, with white trim and white plants. The embellishment can be said to be the tallest building in Macau. These buildings were once the official residence of senior Macau officials and a representative native Portuguese residence. Carmelite Church is the only Catholic church in Taipa. It has a history of 100 years and its establishment symbolizes the arrival of the Portuguese. At present, the church is only allowed to enter the prayers, and many movies come here to capture the scene. , the park stretches along the hill and climbs up the hillside overlooking the Macau city. The most special one is the long ladder built along the slope. The wall is made of the same Tiffany Green as the Dragon Ring Portuguese Museum, with a statue of the famous Portuguese poet James.

From the Venetian Hotel, there is a pedestrian bridge on the right hand side of the west wing of the hotel. You can walk along the road to get to the sights.

If someone asks which museum I like most in Macau, I must answer without hesitation: Longhuan Portuguese House Museum! The Macalonian (Clean Green) museum was opened to the public on December 5, 1999. It was once the official residence of senior Macau officials. The small and clean exterior attracted many domestic and foreign tourists. The five green residential areas have a very nice name: the home of the Portuguese, the home of the island, the home of the Portuguese region, the exhibition hall, and the guest house. The Longhuan Portuguese House Museum has been included in Macau's important heritage and cultural heritage. The museum is open from Tuesday to Sunday: 10 am

It is a place where one can quietly savor the cultural essence and enjoy the aesthetic beauty of art. Through displays of the history and culture of the Macanese people, home furnishings, and photographs, the museum recreates the living scenes of the Macanese in the past. From the arrangements in the dining room and bedroom, one can also feel the devout religious faith of the Portuguese. Everything in the museum helps visitors gain a deeper understanding of the culture, making it a place well worth visiting. 📍Address: Avenida da Praia, Taipa, Macau

'Long Wan' is the old name for Taipa, and 'Po Yun' refers to the Portuguese architectural style in the area, including several Portuguese-style houses along Avenida da Praia, the Carmo Church, and the picturesque surroundings of the park. Among them, the five small green buildings are the most representative. These buildings were completed as early as 1921 and were once the residences of senior officials, also representing the typical Macanese houses. In 1992, these five buildings were recognized as a group of buildings with architectural value. After thorough restoration, the government converted them into a museum district named 'Taipa Houses-Museum,' which has been open to the public since the end of 1999. In September 2016, the Macau SAR government restructured and utilized the five buildings of Taipa Houses. From west to east, they are respectively the 'Exhibition Gallery,' 'Creative Casa,' 'Nostalgic House,' 'House for Reception,' and 'House for Reception.' These buildings combine special exhibitions, outdoor performances, and festive activities, making it a stage to showcase the culture of Portuguese-speaking countries and the cultural characteristics of countries around the world.

Macanese cuisine has been recognized by UNESCO as the world's first "fusion" cuisine, but many people are still unfamiliar with this cuisine and often mistakenly believe it is just a branch of Cantonese cuisine. With Portuguese culture rooted in Macau for more than 40 years, Macanese cuisine bears witness not only to Portugal’s maritime history but also to the time-honoured culinary expertise of the vibrant Macau community. I recommend trying the meat pie, cheese pie, and mixed vegetables. Next time I will choose to come in the afternoon and have a leisurely afternoon tea!
