Macau's Old Town: A blend of everyday life and dazzling extravagance
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. It is the oldest, largest, and most well-preserved and concentrated historic district in China, where Western-style buildings dominate, complemented by Chinese-style architecture.
The glittering luxury hotels are just a stone's throw away from the quaint, nostalgic streets and alleys. The bright colors of Western buildings paired with the classical grandeur of Chinese architecture do not clash, creating a harmonious blend. Macau offers an all-encompassing culinary culture, a relaxed and leisurely lifestyle, a shopping environment with a wide variety of goods and few people, and a deep historical heritage. Macau possesses an irreplaceable urban charm.
one of my favorite park in macau which i can relax and meditate well, very nice for jogging or walking and exercise too. it’s close to st. Anthony’s church and walking distance from the well-known hospital kiangwu
Take the 17-way loop bus at the gate terminal and get off at the White Dove's Nest. You will come to the park front. The nameplate introduces the opening time of the park. This place is called Phoenix Mountain, and has planted the phoenix wood introduced by Portuguese from Malacca. The park was built in the 1870s as a garden villa for the rich Portuguese businessman, the Lira. It was later leased to the British East India Company as its Macau office and plant collection nursery. In the early nineteenth century, the son-in-law of the Philippine marcus inherited the property, because of his love for white pigeons, he once raised hundreds of white pigeons here, flying all over the sky, and the scene was spectacular. In 1849, in honor of Jammeh, the great poet who had reclusively lived there and wrote the immortal epic Soul of Portugal, Majis spent money casting a bust of Jammeh and placing it in a stone cave in the garden. In 1885, the government purchased the property and converted it into a park open to the public. Jammers Park is surrounded by mountains and ancient trees. The environment is elegant. Because the horse's zeal for pigeons, the common white pigeons fly around and are known as "white dove nests".
The park has a history of more than two hundred years. Although it is not big, the scenery is still good, and it is very close to many famous buildings in Macau, including the old Lisboa Hotel. It is also very close. No one may be more sun-dried during the day.
