22 Calcada das Verdades, Macao
Here is the old Portuguese Fortress at the heart of Macau city. It can be accessed after visiting the ruins of St. Paul's church on the lower grounds. The entry to the museum is also from the fort. The fort itself is free to access and appreciate panoramic views of the city.
Cool and ancient Portuguese fortress next to the Ruins of Sao Paulo. The fortress provides a panoramic view of the historic city center of Macau, rest of the Macau Peninsula, even coastal Zhuhai. This fortress has WAY too much cannons. The Macau museum is situated at the top in a Portuguese style building. Watching the sunset reflect over the pool in front of the museum was really spectacular.
Very crowded, but a surprising experience in Macau. The fort was built by the Portuguese and had some of the classic European style. There was a great view of Macau from the top. I bit of a hike to get up there, but spectacular views.
Nice for a walk anytime. You can see the ‘Ruins of St Paul’s from here. You also can visit the ‘Largo da Companhia de Jesus’ statue here which is the most iconic statue in Macau. U can use the elevator on the north side when the building is open.
