The recommended tour time is 1 day, which is suitable for history and culture lovers. 💖Overview of attractions ✔️A-Ma Temple: In the early days, it was called Niangma Temple, Tianfei Temple or Haijue Temple. Later it was named "Mazu Pavilion". It is commonly known as "A-Ma Temple" by the Chinese. It is the oldest temple in Macau that has physical evidence. It is the longest-preserved Central Plains building in Macao and was once named one of the "Eight Scenic Spots of Macao". The temple includes the "No. 1 Hall of the Holy Mountain", Zhengjue Zen Forest, Hongren Hall, Guanyin Pavilion and other buildings. ✔️San Lorenzo Church: Founded in the mid-16th century, it is one of the three ancient churches in Macau. Its current size was formed in 1846. The Chinese call it "Feng Shun Tang", which means praying for "good weather". The area where the church is located used to be a noble residential area, so the church building is also beautiful. Its appearance is based on European classical style with a Baroque style. ✔️Kanggong Temple: Kanggong Temple is located in the middle of October 5th Street and has a history of more than 200 years. The main hall of the temple is dedicated to the true king of Kanggong, Li Lie, the commander of the Han Dynasty. He served in protecting the country and was named Kanggong. In the past, the temple was close to the sea. According to legend, a wooden statue of King Kang floated there, so residents built a temple to worship it. Later, the temple was built in the 10th year of Xianfeng (1860). The temple enshrines gods and Buddhas such as Kang Gongzhenjun, Nanhai Guangli Hongsheng King, Xishan Jinshenghou King, the Sixth Patriarch and Hua Tuo. ✔️October 5th Street: October 5th Street is a famous old street in Macau. The street was named to commemorate the Portuguese revolution on October 5, 1910, which overthrew the monarchy and established the republic. To commemorate this event, the Macao-Portuguese government changed the name of Sikou Meng Street to October 5th Street. This area has a strong nostalgic atmosphere, and there are many shops and gourmet restaurants worth visiting. ☀️Want to learn more about the history and culture of Macau?
