Fueling Up for a Day of Discovery:

We start our day with a delectable breakfast at the Parisian Macau. With a plethora of restaurants offering international cuisines, you can indulge in anything from a classic French pastry to a hearty dim sum spread. After all, a delicious breakfast is the perfect fuel for a day of exploration!

A Step Back in Time: Unveiling the Ruins of St. Paul’s

Our first stop is the iconic Ruins of St. Paul’s, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a poignant reminder of Macau’s fascinating past. This grand 17th-century church, once a towering symbol of Christianity in Asia, was tragically ravaged by fire in the 1800s. Despite the destruction, the remaining facade stands tall, a testament to the city’s rich history and architectural prowess. Capture some stunning photos amidst the ruins, and don’t forget to soak in the serene atmosphere that permeates the site.

After delving into the past, let’s explore some hidden gems that Macau has to offer. Here are a few suggestions to personalize your itinerary:
