Colonial architecture |
Ruins of St. Paul's. Built in the 16th century by Jesuits, it was the largest Catholic church in Asia at the time. Destroyed by a fire during a typhoon in 1835. |
Gondola ride in the Venetian Hotel, Macau. Ridiculous. |
Roman-themed shopping center at the Macau Fisherman's Wharf, a complex built in the style of different world seaports. It was a cool area, but almost all of the store fronts were empty. |
Senado Square |
Incense coils at A-Ma Temple |
Monte Fort. Built by the Jesuits in the 16th century, later served as the first residence of the governors of Macau. |
Macau was handed back to China in December 1999. In celebration, each province gave Macau a gift. This is a woodcarving of the Stork Tower, gifted by ShanXi province. |
