The Grave Walk

In Macau, unless you can afford a stay at The Venetian, you would probably end up settling in one of the many 2 star hotels across the city. Like the one we stayed in, complete with creaking floor boards, leaking tap and very hard beds.

Charming, albeit dingy 1960s room
Dor hated the room. As long as there is running hot water in the toilet, I am satisfied.

I know, the graveyard is the last place you will think of as an attraction to visit. But, it is here at the old protestant cemetery that i learnt so much about the history of the early colonists in Macau. Their stories all carved deep into the stones that mark their graves.

And to the memory of Macau...
