Macao Special administrative regions of China - Taipa Houses & Old Macau

Описание: Taipa Houses -
Acclaimed as one of the top eight sites of Macao, the Taipa Houses represents the charming Portuguese architectural style in Taipa. The Portuguese residences along Avenida da Praia, together with the neighbouring Our Lady of Carmel Church and the garden, comprise a picturesque landscape in which the five green houses stand out as the most representative.
These five houses, built in 1921, once served as the residences of senior civil servants, also namely Macanese families; in 1992, they were acknowledged as a building complex of architectural value. Later, the government decided to revamp the houses completely as a museum site, opened to the public at the end of 1999 as the ‘Taipa Houses-Museum’.
Old Macau -
Macau, was in my travel list for a long time. The first time I came to know of Macau was through a James Bond movie called The Man with The Golden Gun where Roger Moore was doing normal James Bond stuff with bad guys in narrow crowded alleys typical to Asian cities and charming his way through the casinos. Even though I had been to Hong Kong so many times, I never got a chance to visit this tiny island nation with Hong Kong keeping me occupied with its charm of its own. Until I did. Old Town Macau day Trip From Hong Kong is a thing for which you must dedicate a day in your next Hong Kong trip.
