TRAVEL DAY 2- PART 1| 5D 4 N @ HONG KONG & MACAU
After an accomplished and
calories-burning on the first day of
my maiden travel to Hong Kong, we then happily made Macao as our second pitstop
the very next day.
But first and foremost,
after waking up from the cozy crib at Central, we first got our tummies filled
up first at Wai Kee Congee Shop before starting our excursion ‘oversea’ (=
Preserved egg and pork
congee (HKD 19)
Chinese Donuts (a.k.a ‘Yau
Char Koay’- HKD 8)
No wonder people say that Hongkie
porridge is way nicer- and I’m now attesting to it! It was a smooth, warm bowl of
soup rice that easily kicks start your day wholesomely in the nutritious way.
Our order came with minced pork and springy, fresh century egg, accompanied by
the must-have Hong Kong fritters- ‘Yao Char Koay’ to complete the meal, after
which, we headed straightway to Shun Tak Centre to board the ferry to Macao.
Quite a nice vintage
spot-on at Morrison Street.
And we were lucky to catch
the noon trip just in time. The fare is HKD 164 per adult.
Upon reaching the Macao harbour,
lots of colorful of buses were seen awaiting the tourists from across the ocean
to ride them over to the respective casinos! And we took the bus designated for
Grand Lisboa as our main aim is to visit the Ruins of St. Paul’s! But first,
let’s go towards the direction of Senado Square that eventually would lead us
to the heritage ruins.
It was certainly a sultry
day ahead, much more hotter than in Malaysia!
But it’s definitely good
news for shutterbugs right? So, sacrifices were inevitable!
And so we passed by the
famous bakeries here- Pastelaria Koi Kei and got ourselves pampered with uber
taste Poutuguese Tart (HKD 9), freshly made on the spot. Same goes to the chicken
floss rolled pastries in the Koi Kei shop too.
Subsequently, we passed by
St. Lawrence Church and thus, paid a quick tour inside the beautiful church that
also hosting Lady of Fatima. I’ve always love the Victorian design of church
and the calming ambiance that comes with its white theme.
So much so we were
relishing in the merry atmosphere and aesthetic buildings, but the scorching hot
weather was too much for us unfortunately. That’s when we decided to hop on our
next destination- the much awaited Venetian City of Macao!
Equally gonna be lots
pictures to be shared, so I shall adjourned them for awhile and shall greet you
guys soon in Macao Trip Part 2- signing off at 2am! (=
