The vermilion gate is painted with auspicious cloud patterns, and the finely carved details reveal the piety of the ancient craftsmen. As you step into the main hall, the smoke from incense lingers in the air, filling the entire temple with solemnity and tranquility. The statue of Guanyin has kind eyes and gentle gaze, as if able to comfort everyone who comes to pray. I stood quietly in the hall, hearing the whispered chanting of scriptures and the subtle sound of burning incense, and the troubles in my heart seemed to dissipate. The courtyard outside the temple is equally enchanting. Stone lanterns stand quietly among the verdant bamboo forest, as if protecting this holy place. The koi in the pond swim leisurely, the ripples reflect the sky, and there is a sense of Zen in the movement and stillness. When I left, I looked back and saw the temple glittering in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if whispering blessings. Guanyin Hall is not only a temple, but also a spiritual harbor.

It is also located between the Macau Peninsula and Coloane, so the distance to any place is the same, saving time. 🎫Customs Tips: Ordinary tourists are recommended to pass through the "Qingmao Port" instead of the "Gongbei Port". The facilities at Qingmao Port are more modern and up-to-date, and the customs clearance is fast, not crowded, and no queues. After passing through customs, you can reach the urban area of Macau, but you need to spend 6 MOP to take a local bus to your destination.

Macau is not only home to modern shopping malls, hotels, and glittering casinos, but also on the Macau Peninsula, there are magnificent European-style cathedrals as well as a place for traditional culture. Among them, the "Three Great Ancient Temples" are famous cultural and prayer sanctuaries. Puji Zen Temple🪭 The Puji Zen Temple, commonly known as the Guanyin Hall, is the largest Buddhist temple in Macau. It is one of the Three Great Ancient Temples of Macau, along with the A-Ma Temple and the Lotus Peak Temple. The temple's founder was Shi Lian Da Shan (1633-1705), belonging to the Zen South Chan Cao Dong Sect. The main building is divided into three halls, and there is a rear garden behind the temple, which is rare in the Hong Kong and Macau region. Lotus Peak Temple🪭 The Lotus Peak Temple was initially built in the twentieth year of the Wanli era of the Ming Dynasty (1592). In the mid-Qing Dynasty, because the present Mount Guia was originally named Lotus Peak, the temple was named after it. The existing scale was rebuilt in the second year of the Guangxu era (1876). The front hall of the temple's central route is dedicated to Mazu, and the rear hall to Guanyin. The interior still preserves the original appearance of the late Qing Dynasty, exuding an ancient charm and full atmosphere. A-Ma Temple🪭 The A-Ma Temple is one of Macau's most famous historical sites and one of the three great temples of Macau. Even the city's foreign name "Macau" is derived from this temple. Whether you are a fan of historical sites or temples, this is a must-visit spot on your trip to Macau. It was built at least before 1553, mainly dedicated to Mazu. The current scale was established after two renovations and expansions in 1874 (the thirteenth year of the Tongzhi era) and 1875 (the first year of the Guangxu era). Visiting tips: All three temples are located on the "Macau Peninsula" and are very suitable for history enthusiasts to visit together. Each site is accessible by bus, with no admission fee. It is recommended to visit before 16:00 in the afternoon to avoid missing out.
