Spent three days in Macau, and my spending perspective was shattered!

Macau is truly a captivating city! Blending historical charm with modern vibrancy, this three-day guide will help you explore Macau to the fullest. 🎈Day 1: Historical & Cultural Tour in Macau Peninsula 📍Ruins of St. Paul's: Macau's iconic landmark, perfect for photos, surrounded by souvenir shops—Koi Kei's almond cookies are a must-buy! 📍Travessa da Paixão: A dreamy pink alley, a must-visit for couples, offering the best angles for photos of the Ruins of St. Paul's. 📍St. Dominic's Church: A Baroque-style church with lavish interiors, free to visit—experience the blend of divinity and art. 📍Senado Square: A Portuguese-style square with wave-patterned cobblestones, near the Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau—worth a peek. 📍A-Ma Temple: Macau's oldest temple, steeped in history and bustling with energy—highly auspicious for prayers and fortune-telling! 🍱 Food Recs: 🥧Lord Stow's Egg Tarts: Crispy crust, silky filling, rich in creamy egg flavor—located in Coloane, perfect after sightseeing. 🍔Tai Lei Loi Kei Pork Chop Bun: Juicy pork chop with crispy bread, ultra-satisfying—available near the Ruins of St. Paul's. 🦀Crab Congee: Sweet and savory, with crab essence infused into the porridge—warms the soul! 🎈Day 2: Leisure & Entertainment in Taipa Island 📍The Venetian Macao: Experience Venice without leaving Asia—gondola rides, dreamy artificial sky and canals, plus luxury shopping. 📍The Parisian Macao: Replica Eiffel Tower (half-scale), stunning for photos, especially when lit at night—super romantic! 📍The Londoner Macao: 1:1 Big Ben replica, street performances, and British-style afternoon tea and souvenirs. 📍Studio City: Don’t miss the "Figure-8" Ferris Wheel—the world’s tallest at 130m, offering breathtaking night views! 🍱 Food Recs: 🍝Golden Peacock: Authentic Indian curry and spices in The Parisian—a must for curry lovers. 🥘Tim Ho Wan: Affordable Michelin-starred dim sum—crispy BBQ pork buns are legendary! 🎈Day 3: Nature & Scenery in Coloane Island 📍Coloane Village: Macau’s "backyard," with pastel houses like a fairy tale—perfect for soft, dreamy photos. 📍Hac Sa Beach: Unique black volcanic sand, ideal for sunrise/sunset. 📍St. Francis Xavier Chapel: A pristine white chapel, featured in films—romantic and serene. 🍱 Food Recs: 🍜Lord Stow’s Café: Opposite the chapel, try their melt-in-your-mouth Serradura pudding. 🦐Coloane Pier Seafood Restaurant: Freshly caught seafood—steamed grouper and boiled shrimp are highlights. 💡Travel Tips: 1. Prepare your Hong Kong-Macau pass and ID in advance. 2. Exchange some MOP at borders/airports—though Alipay/WeChat work widely, some shops are cash-only. 3. Drive on the left; use free casino shuttles or buses for easy transport. 4. Stay in Macau Peninsula or Taipa—The Venetian or The Parisian offer themed luxury. Pack this guide and embark on your Macau adventure! 💖 #MacauTravel #MacauGuide #MacauFood #MacauCheckIn
