2007 July: Hong Kong: Day 2: Macau Excursion

2007 July: Hong Kong: Day 2: Macau Excursion


This time, we join the guided tour handled by Grayline Tours for our Full Day Macau Excursion (http://www.macautourism.gov.mo/en/index.php).

A Grayline coach will pick up the guests in their respective hotels and will be guided to transfer to Macau Ferry Terminal to take a Turbo Jet for the departure to Macau.



First stop is to take photos of Statue of Kun Lam.




Then we visited Museum of Macau (
http://www.macaumuseum.gov.mo/maineng.htm), where exhibits of Macau's history, people and culture resides. (Cameras are allowed but be sure not to use the flash!)


Ruins of St. Paul's Roman Catholic Church - This Church was built in 1602 and burned by fire in 1835. Miraculously, fine art of carvings and statues can be seen on the surviving facade.




Casinos in Macau.

Then we had a short walk on the Europe-like Street in Macau.

10th tallest free-standing tower in the world, 8th tallest in Asia. Tower is 338m high at its highest point; main observation level is 223m above ground.

Look that I’m standing on a clear glass floor, over looking the cars on the roads below.
