Macau°ㅣEnter the fairy tale world in one secondㅣFengtang Alley

Because there was a leprosy hospital here,
it was the first infectious disease hospital established by the West in China.
It was a restricted area in the past and the locals avoided it as much as possible.

The Wong Tak Church next to the hospital is a small church,
specially for leprosy patients to pray,
so it is called "Crazy Church" or "Crazy Temple",
and the sloping road in front of the church is also named "Crazy Church Alley".
⋯⋯⋯⋯
For hundreds of years, Chinese and Western cultures have coexisted and thrived together.
In the history of Fengtang Alley,
it was where the Portuguese lived,
and where Christians lived in Christchurch,
and it was also a village where Han people lived.

The 19th century southern European two-story houses are preserved here. The yellow and red Portuguese exterior, the long windows, and the Portuguese floor tiles with gravel mosaics are full of exotic atmosphere. Once you step into this place, you will have the illusion of traveling through time.
⋯⋯⋯⋯
Now Fengtang Alley is a gathering place for literary and artistic creators.
In addition to art schools and art galleries,
there are also small markets during holidays.

There are not many tourists, and there is no noise from group tourists, so you can enjoy a relaxing and comfortable stroll.

The lights are turned on at night, making this place even more romantic. It is worth visiting during the day and then again at night.

Tips: There are several places you must not miss.
❶ The century-old Dafengtang Art House (there are calligraphy classes on weekend afternoons)
❷ Fengtang No. 10 Creative Park (Exhibition Hall Cultural and Creative Park)
❸ Fengtang No. 8 Fanzai House (former nursing home)
⋯⋯⋯⋯
Transportation:
10 minutes walk from the Ruins of St. Paul’s.
