Macau Travel: Ruins of St Paul's

Originally a church built in the 1600s, the Ruins of St Paul's is basically what's left after fire destroyed the church back in 1800s.

Spam picture before climbing the stairs. #excuseme

Closer look at the Ruins of St Paul's.

Behind the ruins. You can climb up the structure and see the view of Macau city from the ruins' window.

From the ruins of the church you can see a...casino. This sounds very contradicting indeed. Hahaha.

There is no entrance fee to see Ruins of St Paul's and the ruins is located within walking distance from Senado Square.

Fel's Diary: Fel is taking it easy

It's a wonder that some people are easily pushed by another people. Don't they know that they are good enough no matter what other people say. After all, life does not have to be determined by some kind of title or salary slip.

"Live high. Live mighty. Live righteously. Taking it easy."

Macau Travel: Monte Fort

Historically built as Portuguese military centre in Macau, Monte Fort still stands until today and it has become part of UNESCO World Heritage of Macau. We need to further climb the hill to be able to see the whole fort which has become a museum now. So for now, we can only see the wall of the fort. XD

The entrance to the fort. The weather was so hot and humid that time. We went in the month of August.

A statue of Virgin Mary is spotted few steps from the entrance.

It's really tiring to climb under the hot weather but finally, we made it to Monte Fort which is now also known as Museu de Macau.

Random shot to show that we are feeling the fort's atmosphere. LOL.

To show that this place is really used to be a fort, the cannons are still well-maintained here.

From the top of the hill, you can also see the panoramic view of Macau. Without really setting on the cannons, of course. =P

Monte Fort is located at the hill on the right side of the Ruins of St Paul's. You can follow the sign and climb the hill to reach the fort on the top of the hill.
