Ruins of St. Paul's, Macau

At first glance, the city seems deserted. Less cars, less public transportation, even lesser pedestrians. I wasn't sure if it's a local public holiday there, so I keep looking for human activity from where I sit in the bus.

The city itself is a mixture of modern architecture and Portuguese influence. One moment you'll see huge casino buildings with its big flashy signs and glittering lights and next you are presented with charming Portuguese styled buildings. I sat at the frontmost seat in the bus next to the driver so I heard her explaining that the government offices there are historical buildings and pink in colour.

Then she halted the bus. Dropped everyone off and instructed where we should head to: the Ruins of St. Paul's.

The more we walked, the thicker the crowd is. So many people that we have to squeeze our way through. Now I can see where everyone is... there seems to be an inner part of the city where everywhere is connected. No wonder there's not much people near the highway. And no, they don't have subways there.
