Macao is a very leisurely and comfortable city, where people live slowly and the entertainment service industry is very developed, which is also the reason why Macao's per capita GDP is in the forefront, and most people here are relatively rich. Here, I would like to share with you some tips on accommodation, attractions, food and shopping in Macao.

Every time I go with different people, do different things, stay in different hotels and eat different foods, even if I go through the same place, I will have different surprises.

Actually, Macau is very small, consisting of two offshore islands, namely Macau Peninsula, Taipa Island and Coloanr. Let's start with "accommodation &; Attractions. " Accommodation strategy

The most important thing in Macau is high-end hotels. As long as the budget is sufficient, try your favorite hotel brand. There are well-known Lisboa Hotel, Wynn Hotel and MGM Golden Palace Hotel on the Macau Peninsula (I have never lived in any of these three hotels, so I have more choices. Macau Sands and Macau Galaxy are home to many international five-star hotels. Let's talk about some of the hotels I have stayed in:

Venetian Resort Hotel

The success of Venetian is that it will integrate hotels, casinos, shopping and performances. I only went shopping, gambling or watching concerts a few times before I checked in once.

The Belle Suite, with a room of 71 square meters, has a sense of sinking living room, and the integrated space of dressing room and bathroom is a surprise for girls (because the dressing table is beautiful)!

Parisian Hotel

Although the space of the deluxe king bed room is not as good as that of the Venetian suite, it is new enough! If the Venetian interior is Italian-style grandiose and complicated, then the Parisian interior is simple and neat modern French style. The environment and sanitation are satisfactory. Of course, most love has to count the views from the window sill.

The water world swimming pool group on the sixth floor of the hotel and the "Paris Tower" in front of the hotel have a panoramic view. The fairytale design of the swimming area from here is already very attractive to us who are ready to go into the water.

The fifth floor of the hotel can be directly connected to the Paris Tower, and you can enjoy the scenery around the hotel when you climb the tower.

Besides, Parisian Hotel is very suitable for bringing children!

The open-air swimming pool group "Water World" has a variety of water amusement facilities, such as dumper music, jules verne spaceship, Marie Antoinette Tower, and children's water slides of different sizes ranging from 1 meters to 12 meters.

The "Q Cube Kingdom" in the hotel has more than 1,811 square meters of indoor and outdoor space, which is full of various amusement projects such as climbing the space capsule, sliding slides, merry-go-round, etc., which can be enjoyed by both children and adults!

Sheraton

There are four hotels in the center of Jinsha City: Conrad, Holiday, Sheraton and Ruijin. I have only stayed in Sheraton. With 4,111 rooms, this Sheraton is the largest hotel in the world (and also the largest hotel in Macau) of Starwood Group. However, living alone that time had little to do with the size of the hotel. The color of the room was a bit like that of Parisians, and there was even a view of the small tower.

There are several hotels in Galaxy Macau: Banyan Tree, Ritz-Carlton, Okura, JW Marriott, Galaxy and Broadway. These hotels are connected with shopping

mall Galaxy Fashion Exchange through casinos, which is very convenient.

Okura Hotel

I have lived in Okura, which belongs to the largest international five-star hotel chain in Japan. The room is not big, but the Japanese service is meticulous. From the hotel lobby, you can walk into the bank's fashion exchange, start the eating/shopping/gambling mode, and go to the Banyan Tree next door to do a spa to release the pressure in the fragrance of Banyan Tree.

In addition, if you stay in any hotel in Galaxy Macao, don't miss the "Tianlang Taoyuan"-it is the world's largest air surfing pool, the world's longest 575-meter air rapids, and the largest children's water recreation area in Macao (killing Parisians haha)! Even if you don't go into the water, walking in the hanging garden is excellent. Introduction to scenic spots

St. Paul's archway

None of the landmark buildings in Macau. It is not a memorial archway, but St. Paul's church (Cantonese transliteration of "Sanba" means "St. Paul"). The church experienced three fires, and the last time it was burned down, only the front wall of the church was left, which became the present archway.

In addition to taking photos of tourists on the front, you can also walk to the back and board the memorial arch, or visit the Catholic Art Museum.

Address: Xiegang, San Paoba, Macau Peninsula (under the battery hill)

In front of the discussion pavilion &; In front of the

Pavilion of the Civil Affairs Department Building is a square, which is listed in the World Cultural Heritage List as a part of the historical city of Macao. It is named because it is located opposite the building of the Civil Affairs Department.

The whole square is paved with gravel in waves, and a fountain stands in the center. Many public activities are often held here, which is very lively. In addition, the surrounding buildings have their own characteristics, which set each other off. The only drawback is that there are many tourists and it is crowded.

Address: Central District of Macau Peninsula, which is connected to the front of Banzhangtang in the north and the Notre Dame de Rose Church in the south.

It is also called Banzhangtang, a Catholic church built in 1587, and now it looks like it was rebuilt in 1828. Its yellow and green appearance is unique, and it is located near the busy new road not far from the bus, which brings more tourists. The church is also very beautiful, so it is recommended to visit it, and be careful not to affect the people who attend the mass.

Address:

Road _ History Museum, Banzhangtang Street, Macau

I haven't visited the interior, but I feel beautiful when I pass by. The blue color of tiffany attracts many tourists to take pictures. Its predecessor is the Island Town Hall Building, which was built in 1921 and will soon be a century-old building.

Opening hours: 11-18 o'clock (closed on Monday, free on Tuesday)

Address: Shilihua Street, Gaoliya, the old town of Taipa

PS: The more beautiful architectural attraction with tiffany blue appearance is the Longhuan Portuguese Rhyme Museum, which is on the seaside road in Taipa and is a popular place to take wedding photos.

black sand beach

"surfing the waves with black sand" is one of the eight scenic spots in Macao. In the east of Macau's roundabout, there is a natural beach with a width of about 1 kilometers, which is named because the sand on the beach is black, and it is also the largest natural bathing beach in Macao. Growing up watching the sea, I don't have much obsession with the beach. If you rarely see the sea, you can go and see this special beach.

macau tower

I'm definitely not going to play with acrophobia-the Macau Tower bungee jumping! The "SkyJump and SkyWalk" project has created the Guinness World Record for the "highest commercial slowdown", which is one of the items that many thrill seekers will include in todo

list. The episode of "America's Top Model" by Nicholas Tse, as well as some variety shows at home and abroad, have all been here for filming.

Address: Shopping Raiders for Lot 1, Area D, New Reclamation Area in Nanwan

The area in front of Banzhangtang-Xinma Road, Macau Peninsula

Before or after punching in the bus, don't be afraid to be crowded. Go and visit the new road, and you can enjoy the unique road features left over from the colonial period-European architecture with patterned stone pavement can pretend to be in Europe in an instant. On the walking route from Xinma Road to Dasanba, there are Watsons and Sasa, which are the must-buy shops for mainland tourists, and there are also many skincare stores, Marathon sporting goods stores (I like to go shopping for shoes), Bauhaus, bossini and other popular brand stores.

New Yaohan

It is not far from the new road, and it is within walking distance. Because it used to be owned by Yaohan Group in Japan, it still maintains the shopping environment and service of Japanese department stores (much like Takashimaya in Shanghai). There are many floors in the mall, and basically everything needed by a family, old and young, is covered, especially Japanese brands.

Road _

The shopping here is against the sky no matter the environment or the category! Why? Because Sands

Macau shopping mall alone has three malls, namely Four Seasons Boutique, Venetian Shopping Center and Parisian Shopping Center, which are connected together, plus an indoor overpass across the street to the Sands shopping mall, it will be amazing! Basically, after visiting these four mall in one day, you can break 21 thousand steps. Before counting the adjacent Galaxy

Macau Fashion Mall and city of dreams

Four Seasons Boutique

, you can tell by the name that it is a big-name gathering place. The space is open and there are fewer people. There is a duty-free shop T

Galleria(T Square) under DFS, which brings together major skin care and makeup counters. It is also a paradise for luxury buyers. As long as the wallet has strength, it is still very enjoyable to visit.

Venetian Shopping Center

has many brands, mainly mid-range. The stores I will check are b+ab, chocoolate and izzue under I.T. and maud

frison, a French shoe store (I buy back its basic flat shoes almost every year).

the beauty of meeting. There is an angel with wings in a golden cage, so painting style can't be more romantic under the bright lights. While shopping, I can also meet gondola boatmen singing and rowing for passengers on the Grand Canal. Well, it really enhances the shopping pleasure.

Parisian shopping center

once again encountered beauty, and I especially like to see such gorgeous pictures.

Later, I happened to meet the dancers twice. They are dedicated, and they will not refuse every visitor's photo or photo invitation. They always greet each other with smiles.

whether outdoors or indoors, just like the Venetians restored Venice to the water city, Parisians are also very concerned. In shopping centers, they name the famous places in Paris, such as Champs Elysé es, Vivienne Arcade and Avenue Montaigne.

Although the number of storefronts is only half that of Venetians, you can't miss Antonia, a high-end fashion buyer's shop. Its first store is in Brera, a fashionable gathering area in Milan, Italy, which is the second in the world.

Jinsha Square

To be honest, there is only one purpose for me to visit Jinsha Square-Kid's

Cavern. Although it is to choose gifts for children, it is also a shopping paradise with endless fun for adults. When we return to childhood in a second (no, where is our childhood so rich in material world), there are not only various brands suitable for boys and girls of different ages, several big-name children's clothes and complete infants. Please think twice about taking care of children.

galaxy fashion club

if you live in macau galaxy, it is very convenient to visit galaxy fashion club. Ring structure, one * * * two floors, shops basically include luxury brands, as well as light luxury brands such as ToryBurch and Kate

Spade, as well as my favorite Aesop store! Of course, there are also restaurants in shopping malls, such as Lugang Town, Cuihua Restaurant and Food Plaza. Food guide

Although Macao is small, there are many Michelin-starred restaurants. I've always wanted to go to RobuchonAu

Dome, a Michelin-starred French restaurant in Novo Lisboa Hotel, but unfortunately I didn't make an appointment for several times.

There are also TheEight, the only Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant in Macau, and Chef TheKitchen, a Michelin-starred steak house restaurant.

However, my star-picking experience in Macau is still relatively blank. I have only tried one-

I was a Michelin star when I went to eat at the end of 2114, and I was promoted to a second star in 2116. It seems that my performance is stable and improving! The dishes follow the French route and the environment is very atmospheric. Cooking traditional ingredients with new methods is full of surprises, from setting the plate to the taste.

The Tattingroomby Galliot Imperial Restaurant

The environment is quiet, the floor is very high, and it is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass, so you can see the openness and exquisiteness outside the restaurant.

Address: 3rd floor, Crown Resort city of dreams

Rua do Cunha

Rua do Cunha, as a classic gourmet street in Macau, has two or three streets and lanes, which are neither wide nor long, but there are also many small shops hidden, which concentrate a lot of delicious food and attract many tourists to gather here.

Sandoz Portuguese restaurant

Originally, I was looking for Dumbo Portuguese restaurant, but later I found it and entered this Sandoz restaurant. The decoration inside shows that the Portuguese boss is a football fan. He warmly greets the guests coming and going, speaks Cantonese well, and the food is authentic, which left a deep impression on me.

Although this dish of Portuguese chicken looks ordinary, it tastes very special and delicious. There should be a little coconut water in the curry, the sauce is salty and sweet, and the chicken is tender and smooth.

Address: No.21, Rua do Cunha

Xiaofeixiang Portuguese Restaurant

Because I thought it was good to eat the Portuguese chicken from Santos, I also ordered the Portuguese chicken in Xiaofeixiang as usual, as well as the Portuguese _ style Magahue (Magahue = Cod) and two soups.

We thought Dumbo was well-known, but as a result, "the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment": _ Fish looks like stew, Portuguese chicken and curry chicken are basically the same, and the tastes of the two soups are just the same. I'm so disappointed. I shouldn't come again.

address: _ 2nd floor, Sheraton Plaza, Dibao Street (at the junction of Shuiya Street and Dibao Street next door to Rua do Cunha)

Tanjia shark's fin

Turn left from Dumbo, and Tanjia shark's fin is next door. The main shark's fin ranges from 55mop to 1111mop, depending on what kind you order and the weight of the order, there is a difference, and there are other staple foods in the store. We ordered the hooked wings in the stone nest. Seeing that the shark fin soup served in the stone pot is still bubbling noisily, I can't wait to eat it. The shark fin in the stone pot is a whole piece, which looks great. Although it is not big, it is still cost-effective. The soup base is a very fragrant thick soup, which tastes delicious. I heard that it is also a good choice for fishing, but we can't eat any more. I recommend it!

Address: _ No.31, Lihua Street, Zigaoliya

Mo __

The signboard and address of his home were written on the lid. We ordered a bran pudding and original Chinese cabbage cake if we didn't like durian.

Dacaigao: When I first heard this name, I thought it was a salty cake, but I didn't expect it to be a dessert that looks like jelly. However, I prefer this texture without heavy Q-bounce, but it tastes ordinary and nothing special.

Wood bran pudding: I will be elated when I open it and see it full of wood bran. It tastes like milk but not too sweet and greasy, and it tastes almost like ice cream. I recommend a try.

Address: Shop A, No.9, Rua do Cunha (just at the street corner, the location is easy to find)

Chengchang Hotel

Address: No.28-31, Rua do Cunha

Juji Bakery

A well-known local specialty store, every time it goes, it will buy some favorite snacks to go home or give handwritten letters to friends around it, and recommend its almond cakes, snowflake almond slices. It is said that the founder opened the store in Guangzhou first, and then came to Macao to take root. In addition to wonton and noodles, there are various Cantonese porridge and snacks.
