I don't believe in those whirlwind "Europe in a week" tours. But if I am going to travel across the International Date Line, I like to know what I should be sure not to miss. So, don't tell anyone I gave it to you, but here's a very unofficial (and surely incomplete) check-list of the Macau (cultural) must-sees:
Penha Church
A-Ma Temple
Moorish Barrachs
Lilau Square
Mandarin House
St. Lawrence Church
St. Joseph Seminary
St. Francis Xavier Relic
Dom Pedro Theatre
St. Augustine Church
Sir Robert Ho Tung Library
