Macau

The biggest event in the destination’s calendar is the Macau Grand Prix which takes place every November. Some of the other highlights to be considered on a Macau vacation include the following. The Ruins of St. Paul’s, a cathedral that burnt down several times and was not rebuilt after the last fire in 1835, is a major landmark in the city. Hovering over the city is the Macau Tower, 225 metres/730 feet high. One can Bungee Jump, climb the tower or simply take in the amazing views in the Observation Lounge. The Jardim Municipal de Montanha Russa is a serene park located high on a hill with an interesting botanical collection. An interesting area is Fisherman’s Wharf with its shops, restaurants and theme park. Then there is the imposing Mandarin House which was built in 1869 and boasts 60 rooms in total. For animal lovers, the Giant Panda Pavillion in Coloane will appeal with its 2 pandas. 

This combination of European and Chinese influences makes Macau a very worthwhile destination to spend time in.
