Don’t miss Ruins of St. Paul’s façade, Senado Square pastel-coloured colonial buildings, A-Ma Temple, and the egg tarts at Lord Stow’s in Coloane. Casino strip (Cotai Strip) is a 30-min taxi from old town if Las-Vegas-of-Asia is your thing. Macau ‘s patacas tied to HKD (~€0.12), Hong Kong dollars also accepted everywhere. Macau itself: visa-free for EU (90 days) on arrival.
