The lighthouse and the chapel at Guia's fort, the highest point in the Macau peninsula
A lot of Macau's residential buildings look like this. I find it a cross between Hong Kong and 1950's Lisbon outskirts, which kind of makes sense.
The winding bridge in Lou Lim Ioc garden has nine turns (the evil spirits can't turn, so you're safe here) and is surrounded by lotus plants.
A typical street in Macau, away from the downtown area
A view to Sai Van Lake, with the Macau tower on the left and the Taipa bridge to its right
Near A-Ma temple, a bilingual street sign and a wall that would be at home in Lisbon.
A-Ma temple from the outside. Its architecture is similar to Man Mo's in Hong Kong, but different from several other Chinese temples we've seen.
The interior of A-Ma temple. Those cone-shaped incense sticks were everywhere.
