Macao, 東望洋山
You should visit this historical place. Can see Macau city from the top of the hill, don't forget to bring mineral water and camera!?
The top and bottom of the small mountain have been well turned into a park. Under the mountain, one tunnel for cars and two tunnels for people to walk have been created. You can use the escalator instead of walking on the crowded streets in the tunnel. You can also reach the top of the mountain by elevator or cable car.
Incredible views from Macau , safe trails , space for exercising and great public toilets. The entire area is free of charge.
An unparalleled view of Macau from the top, and finding the tunnel with travelators and an elevator definitely made this trip a lot easier on a very hot sunny day. There's also a cable car that will get you up to the top, and it's about a 10-15min walk to the fortress from either the cable car or elevator. I definitely recommend going into the church at the top to see some amazing historical paintings, done by someone clearly devoted to their religion (unfortunately photos aren't allowed). Other than the church and the lighthouse, there's not much else up there.
Lovely park and people exercising, some great views, overall a nice experience. The cable car return journey is only MOP 3 ....£030, $0.40? Bargain!
