Try the Macao Tower Bungee JumpThe Macao Tower, 338 meters tall, is the world’s 10th highest tower, with a variety of entertainment activities.
One of the activities is the bungee jump, which is popular with extreme sports lovers. The bungee-jumping height is 233 meters, making it a Guinness World Record as the highest commercial bungee jump in the world.
Enjoy the Egg Tart of MacaoOne of the must-try local foods in Macao is the egg tart. This dessert is different from the Cantonese egg tart. One of the visible differences is the slightly burned caramel (焦糖) top. The creamy filling, tasty crust (酥皮) and the burned caramel top create an incredible mixture of flavor.
Gradually, the bakery has become a fixed tourist spot in Macao, where the queue outside will never be empty.
Grab a Selfie at the Ruins of St. PaulThe Ruins of St. Paul is one of the signature landmarks of Macao. The ruins consist of the St. Paul’s College and the Church of St. Paul, built in 1580. However, after three intense fires in 1595, 1601 and 1835, the church was seriously damaged.
