Another part of life in Macau, quiet, sea breeze and beautiful scenery. There is a famous shop called lord stow selling Portuguese egg tarts.

Stroll round this village untouched by the glitz of the casinos. The Macau tourist organization has a nice walk you can do in Coloane

Sleepy little town away from it all. Its easy to walk around for a few hours or half a day. See the quaint old architecture and wander the alleyways and along the water. Stop at the temple. Have coffee at a cafe and egg tarts at Lord Stowe's bakery. Then board a bus or taxi back to Taipa or Macau.... More

Well the best has to be Hac Sa beach which is safe for children and excellent for swimming. The reservoir behind the beach has a boating lake and wonderful country park walks with fantastic views and for a meal the Miramar restaurant at the north end is excellent in both food and value

If you want to see the real macau, you have to go to coloane. you can see old houses and buildings that are not well maintained with chipped paint, a bit dirty road, lots of automatic motorcycles, the hotels & casinos are the fake macau.

Loved the egg tarts from Lord Stow - nice view from Coloane Village, very countryside feel. Will be great if there are more eateries there.
