From the bustling Gambling haven to the tranquil traditional heritage sites, you will enjoy a blend of thrill, serenity and gastronomical delight.

Day 1 - Hello Macau

Start your day on a high note by venturing the Senado Square.

Nearby, don't miss the iconic St. Dominic's Church, it's a mesmerizing tribute to Macau's Catholic faith. Later on, head towards the famous A-Ma Temple, a sacred site existing before the city came into being. What better way to end the day than eating a scrumptious Portuguese dinner at the local restaurants near the temple? Sounds like an amazing day, right?
