For 1st timer to Macau, the following sightseeing sites in downtown Macau is definitely on the to-go list. We started from Senado Square (议事亭前地) and walked towards Ruins of St. Paul’s (大三巴牌坊). Along the way there were many other heritage sites, shopping and food stalls. But overall we only spent about half a day there in the morning and went back there again at night for dinner.
