This is the conclusion of an ongoing series. To start at the beginning, click here.
So on Saturday early morning we got on our flight and flew back to Malaysia. that’s the good thing about Macau, you can get a cab in anywhere 24 hours a day.
I think in retrospect, in the 5 full days we spent in Macau, plus the one day in Hong Kong, we saw everything we wanted to see in Macau. Plus some more. We didn’t want to go to Zhuhai, but that’s somewhere you can consider going if you have the time. We’ve been told the seafood is good and cheap, but the border crossing can be hectic.
if you have only a day to spend in Macau, there are many itineraries you can search on the Internet. But for us, the highlights that you should not miss are the Guia Lighthouse, ruins of St. Paul and Senado Square (nothing much to see, but is the icon of Macau), the Venetian. And you must eat the Portuguese egg tart at Lord Stow’s, the biscuits (like Koi Kei) and pork chop bun. If you have an extra day, do Coloane and Taipa.
Because Macau is so small, one trip is enough, which means we will not likely return, unless we ever do a day trip from Hong Kong. But it is definitely a place to go if you haven’t been.
Until our next trip at the end of the year, then!
