The Historic Centre of Macao is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Ruins of St. Paul, the Mount Fortress, St. Dominic's Church, and the A-Ma Temple—one route strings together 400 years of history.
Why visit
The Macau Tower stands 338 meters tall; the Skywalk and the bungee jump challenge your courage, and the observation deck frames the Pearl River Estuary and Hengqin in its windows. It is the highest seat for overlooking the whole city. Set aside about 2 hours to wander slowly.

FAQ

October to December is best, cool and with little rain. Spring is humid, summer is hot and typhoon-prone, and the feel is mediocre.

Half a day at the Ruins of St. Paul and the historic centre, half a day at the Cotai hotel cluster, and the rest at Rua do Cunha for food and the Macau Tower. The city is tiny—walk plus free shuttles.
