It is located in the most prosperous Central District of Macau, with very convenient transportation🚌 The garden is full of flowers and plants🌳🌱, like an oasis in the bustling city, attracting many tourists to visit❤ Moreover, the environment in the park is very Portuguese style, the characteristic roadway formed by the combination of squares, the architectural style of red and white combination, very special🤗 The highest point of the garden is a light red circular building with a crown decoration on the top. It was once the Portuguese Memorial Hall, full of European charm🏫 and super comfortable to enjoy ❤🤳

#yearofrabbit #newyearadventure #tripblazers #beachlife The S. Francisco Garden is the oldest garden in Macau.[1] The history of the garden goes back nearly four centuries. In 1580, a convent stood at the site now occupied by the garden. The convent was built by Castilian friars of the Franciscan order. The builders of the convent were supplanted by Portuguese friars five years later. But the name of the Castilian friars remains closely associated with the place even today: The garden continues to be referred to by its Cantonese name 'Ka-Si-Lán-Fa-Yun', meaning 'Garden of the Castilians'.

#MacauAttractions Located between Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro and Guia Hill in Macau, the Gaslan Garden is a quiet urban oasis in the bustling city. The park is shaded by green trees, flourishing flowers and has an elegant environment. It is a favorite leisure spot for local residents and tourists. The garden is named after the Portuguese poet Camões, with a bust of him standing in the center, which is full of historical and cultural atmosphere. Walking in the park, you can often see local people playing chess, practicing martial arts or taking a walk here, and the atmosphere is full of life. There are also many historical buildings and snack bars nearby, which are convenient for tourists to explore. Compared to Macau’s casinos and large-scale attractions, this place allows people to feel the daily life and tranquility of Macau, and is a hidden attraction worth visiting.

My dears✨, this is my sixth visit to Macau, and I have embarked on an extraordinary journey of cultural heritage! Start from the Gaslan Garden and feel the leisure of Macau in the greenery. National Geographic Grand Lisboa check-in spot, where modern architecture and historical atmosphere collide to create wonderful sparks. The Vasco da Gama Gardens is filled with swaying trees and a sense of comfort. Stepping into Fengtang Alley, you will find a blend of artistic atmosphere and Portuguese style, and every corner is worth savoring. The solemn and majestic Church of Our Lady of L'Avenida da Mundo tells the story of the years silently; the majestic and magnificent Cannon Fort has witnessed countless changes in the world. The exquisite decorations in the Church of Our Lady of the Rosary are breathtaking; the town hall building displays a unique elegance. Strolling in front of Gangding, the historical charm is overwhelming. St. Augustine's Church, Dom Pedro V Theatre, St. Lawrence's Church, these ancient buildings are filled with profound cultural heritage. The Ho Tung Library and St. Joseph's Seminary were unexpected surprises, quiet and mysterious. After this journey, I realized that Macau is much more than just a place of decadence and glamour. The parishes divided around the church retain the cultural heritage of the Portuguese colonial period. Going deep into the streets and alleys and encountering these little-known places is the true way to touch the soul of Macau. Although it was only a one-day trip, I gained a lot. I will continue to share the cultural stories of Macau’s World Heritage in the future, so stay tuned! #MacauItinerary

This time I went to Macau to slowly discover the side I usually don't see. I haven't been to the Peninsula area of ​​​​Macau for a long time. After taking pictures of the Grand Lisboa Hotel in the New Street, I walked back down to find Garthfield Garden! I was surrounded by a pink cylindrical building of the garden and walked in to take pictures, the garden is full of plants, there are rides and there are some benches to rest when you are tired, so it is not difficult to find many Macau locals resting here! Walking down to see this one red building with bean paste, looking at the map and realizing it is the Army Club Restaurant, I didn't expect it at all😆 #globaltravel #Macau

As the first park in Macau, Gaslan Gardens is intoxicatingly beautiful in its pink and tender tones, as if you have traveled to a romantic town in Europe. And Crazy Hall Diagon Alley, those colorful little houses, lined up one after another, really kind of walking into a 3D pictorial feeling, casually raise the camera, each one can be directly sent to friends. In addition to the beautiful architecture, the small shops along the way are also well worth a visit. There are some handicraft shops that sell specialty souvenirs. If you go shopping, you will always find many surprises. You can take super beautiful photos of the Grand Lisboa here without having to go to a crowded place with your friends.

#Macau Attractions Travel lovers, you must come to these places in Macau! First is the Garthfield Garden, which is the first park in Macau, the sun is shining, super bright 😍, the pink building is as gentle as the Fundação de Serralves designed in Portuciza, Portugal, great for photography. Walking to Crazy Hall Diagon Alley, wow, the colorful little house is super eye-catching, just like walking in a 3D pictorial, a casual shot is very out of the film. If you want to take pictures of the Grand Lisboa, you don't have to go to Meijia Building. The angle here is also good on the New Street. Walk further to the Eastern Lighthouse. Although I didn't climb, the scenery along the way is great. The White Pigeon Nest Park is even more cultural. As a World Cultural Heritage, the Oriental Foundation has a stylish villa garden and Camons Cave, where the great poet Cammons is said to have written poetry. The Portuguese name of the park is named after him. Finally, go to Tasik Square, the neoclassical Tasik Art Museum with a beautiful color scheme like Alsace on the German-French border. In short, these points in Macau, come and explore!

(Portuguese: Jardim de S. Francisco), located at the junction of Rua do Guia and Avenida da Barca, is the first park in Macau and its historical value has been assessed by the Macau government. Because it is adjacent to the former Gaslan Barracks, it is often called Gaslan Gardens. The word "Caslan" in the "Caslan Garden" comes from the Portuguese word S. Francisco (also translated as Saint Francis). In 1580, the Spanish Franciscans established a monastery here, and its name was Saint Francis. In 1861 the monastery was demolished and the Garthlan Barracks was built, and the adjacent grounds were converted into a garden open to the public. Built in the 1860s, it covers an area of ​​6,100 square meters and was once rectangular in shape. It can be regarded as the first garden in Macau. The garden is designed in European style. In the past, one could overlook the South Bay from here, so it was called South Bay Garden. It was also called Gaslan Garden because it was close to the Gaslan Barracks. In 1920, a large-scale land reclamation project began in the area in front of the garden, which is now blocked by high-rise buildings and the Grand Lisboa Hotel. The garden was designed and supervised by Dr. Mario Soares (Matias Soares). The garden is divided into high and low parts. The high part is divided into two floors. From the current Avenida da Praia do Praia to Rua do Guia, it is divided into three floors in total. The gardens used to be surrounded by walls and railings and closed at night. In the past, the Garthlan Gardens was a gathering place for the upper class to stroll, chat and enjoy the sea view. At dusk, enjoy the melodious music from the park's music stage. In 1935, the government opened up Galatang Street, and the area of ​​the garden was reduced. The music stand in the garden was also dismantled in 1940 due to the cancellation of music performances. Since then, it has been abandoned and demolished, leaving only the green garden. At the end of the garden is the octagonal pavilion library. At the highest point in the park, there is a pale pink cylindrical building, formerly the European War Memorial. It is two stories high, with arched doors and windows all around, walls engraved with patterns, and a crown-shaped decoration on the top to commemorate the Portuguese soldiers who died in the First World War. It has now become the venue of the Macau Association for the Disabled.

Stepping into Camoes Garden feels like entering a serene world far removed from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The lush greenery and towering trees create a canopy, with sunlight filtering through the leaves, casting dappled shadows that add a poetic touch to the garden. Winding paths meander through the foliage, quiet and charming, inviting visitors to slow their pace and immerse themselves in the embrace of nature. The sound of birds chirping and the gentle rustle of leaves in the breeze further enhance the tranquil atmosphere. The garden's fountain flows quietly, its clear waters reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, with droplets adding a refreshing coolness to the air. Scattered stone benches host a few visitors, some reading, others chatting, all enjoying a sense of leisurely contentment. The classical garden design, combined with the lush vegetation, creates a harmonious blend of European and Oriental aesthetics. As I paused under the pavilion, feeling the surrounding peace, I couldn't help but appreciate the tranquility of the moment. This garden silently tells the gentle story of time, making it hard to leave.

#MacauAttractions Take advantage of the sunny afternoon to visit the secret pink garden near Macau Lisboa - Gaslan Garden. The Gascon Garden, also known as the Nam Van Garden, is located at the junction of Rua do Guia and Alquería de la Barca in Macau. It was once a monastery established by the Spanish Franciscans. It was later confiscated by the government. In 1860, the monastery was demolished and built into a barracks, and the land in front was developed into a garden, so it was called the Gascon Garden. It turned out to be the first park in Macau. From today's Avenida da Praia do Nam Van to Guia Street, it is divided into three levels. Each level is planted with many old trees that bear witness to history, as well as pink low wall columns, arch fountains, and many unique buildings and cobblestone roads. It is full of European style and is great for checking in and taking photos. The small Gaslan Garden located in the city center may not be as eye-catching and lively as other popular attractions in Macau, but if you take the time to discover it, you will realize its uniqueness and charm.

#mytripvlog #tripblazers #wintergetaway The S. Francisco Garden is the first public garden of Macao and is steep in history. It used to spread across the site of the S. Francisco Convent built by the Spanish Franciscan friars from Castile on 2 February 1580, hence its Chinese name meaning “Garden of the Castilians”. The Spanish Franciscan friars were later replaced by the friars of the Franciscan Order in Portugal. When the Portuguese religious orders were being banned in 1834, the Macao government took possession of the convent and its assets.

#OverseasTravel Macau was ruled by Portugal for more than 400 years, so there are many Chinese-Portuguese buildings, or Portuguese-style architecture - "Portuguese style" Basically, Portuguese architecture is not self-contained, but a mix of foreign influences.
