First time in Macau? I highly recommend following this itinerary!

🇲🇴 Turn your days into a leisurely Macau journey ✨
It's not about checking off sights or rushing through
It's about taking three days,
to lighten your steps and slow your gaze,
and discover a different Macau amidst the wind at street corners and reflections on the sea🌊
