Day 1: Stories of the glory and tradition of firefighting
In the morning, we came to the Macau Fire Department Museum. This building built in the 1920s carries the long history of the Macau Fire Department. The museum displays early firefighting equipment and precious cultural relics, from manual water pumps to modern fire trucks, bearing witness to the advancement of technology and the changes of the times. The most attractive things are the heroic stories and real-life simulations of firefighters, which make people feel the responsibility and selfless dedication behind protecting the city. In the afternoon, we moved to A-Ma Temple. This oldest temple in Macau is filled with the piety of the worshippers. Amid the smoke of incense, the ancient culture and traditions continue, which makes people feel respectful.
Day 2: Continuation of culture and bustling streets
On the second day, we first came to the Ruins of St. Paul's. This relic, known as the symbol of Macau, exudes a strong religious and historical atmosphere. The exquisite carvings record the glorious past of cross-cultural exchanges. Then stroll to Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro, a bustling street filled with the fusion of Chinese and Western cultures. The shops and food stalls along the way are so fascinating that you can feel the vitality and prosperity of modern Macau. The two-day trip not only allowed us to explore Macau’s history and culture in depth, but also allowed us to experience the unique charm of the interweaving of modernity and tradition.
