Guia Fortress And Lighthouse

Unclaimed

An easy walk uphill to find a historic relic. The lighthouse was once part of the historic battery there. The chapel was open for visit but no pictures allowed inside. Really picturesque photos of the light house plus wide open aerial views of Macao. This was also where the typhoons were hoisted in the old days, and therefore there are displays of the actual typhoon signals. Those are also relics now. The whole area is a natural park, and also there are military use tunnels as well, and the tunnels are open Tuesday to Sunday. Really worth a visit for instagrammable photos and also for historic buffs.

The climb is a bit tiring, but once you get up you can see the whole scenery of Macau, which is very worth it.

Totally worth the climb up! Great views of Macau! Don’t miss the little chapel as it has frescos inside!

This place was awesome! Prepare to walk uphill though but it is worth it. Bundle up as well because it can get really cold and windy. The fortress and light house are cool places to see but there are also a lot of gym equipment installed here that you can use for free. I see many people - young and old using them and jogging here. The place is very well maintained. Cable cars are also available but the day we visited, they were none operational because of the weather conditions. There was no rain but super strong winds so that was unfortunate. Still worth visiting though when you visit Macao. No entrance fee. The cable cars do have a fee, if I recall, 2 MOP per ride.
