澳 Macau 门
Often when many think about Macau, casino came into their mind.
But for me, there is only one thing that attracts me to the heaven of gamblers – Bungy Jump.
.
Not only being the highest bungy in the world, but also with Guinness Book of Records with “World Highest Commercial Bungy Jump” at 233M.
.
It all started when I was browsing through the AirAsia web for promos and caught this good deal to Macau.
I quickly check with my adventurous partner, Kah Mun to see if she wants to join in the fun.
Guess what, she said YES!
We started our journey from Kuala Lumpur to Macau International Airport on the 4th June 2015.
Booked hotel and stuff beforehand so there is no rushy.
Our hotel: Ole London Hotel (not bad actually despite the rude receptionist.)
After checking in, both of us went on to explore the small city of Macau with scorching hot weather at about 35 degrees.
Confused while walking, we were so drenched in sweat until we found these signs.
We headed to Senado Square. It is a town square in the small city of Macau.
It was packed with tourists. Mainly from the Mainland.
Had lunch before heading to the MUST-VISITs.
Koi Kee biscuit is everywhere in Macau. Like literally every corner! You can find some located in Hong Kong too.
The auspicious Ruins of St. Paul! Finally!
It was super sunny. We could barely feel our foot. Nonetheless, witnessing this greatness was all worth-while. We selfie non-stop and figured that was all. Yes, and reading some history as we approached the walls behind.
Then we proceed to our next destination with lots of pictures and sweats.
Fisherman’s Wharf has never came to my mind until it was spotted on one of Korean Variety Show “Running Man”. Which happened to be my all-time fav TV program weekly. It looked so beautiful despite the freaking hot sun.
It was very quiet and empty though. We did not figure out why until we asked the lady at a cafe. She explained that usually it is always packed at night because of the casinos available.
We had some drinks at the cafe purely because we couldn’t walk any longer until the cruel summer heat.
Located on the Cotai Strip, Estrada da Baía de N. Senhora da Esperança.
With an area of about 980,000 square meters (242 acres). Opened on August 28th, 2008, it is the largest single block style hotel in Asia and the second largest building in the world.
It has the function of performance, entertainment, shopping, exhibition, accommodation and large scale gaming.
Venetian, in my opinion was impressive. Mainly because of its very European-style architecture and building design.
Name all the brands you like. Its all here!
Grand Canal Shoppe is located in Venetian. Just a few mins walk away from the main building.
You will see Gondola rowing in the middle of the area. Well, yes you will need to pay for the ride!
FOOD!
its all about eating here at Rua de Cunha!
The famous porridge: Seng Cheong is a MUST-TRY!!!!
The tallest building in Macau. Macau Tower has so much to offer. Variety of things to commit into.
Head to the observatory deck for a great view of Macau, to be impressed.
Dining at the 360 degree restaurant will give you a spin, beware!
8. AJ Hackett Bungy Jump- Macau Tower
The main reason visiting Macau Tower, or should I rephrase it.. The ultimate reason for the trip is to Bungy Jump at the World Tallest Bungy Jump under Guinness Book of Records.
At 233m, you get a 7 seconds free-fall with your eyes opened.
Caution: Not for the weak-hearted.
Check out my bungy jump video here.
Next: HONG KONG!
Til then.
