Once Upon A Cantonese Winter: A Mix of Old and New


 The once Portuguese colony has still maintained its charm despite the numerous hotels and casinos being built in the peninsula.

Once Upon A Cantonese Winter: Metropark Hotel, Macau


I was still anxious inside the bus and was carefully looking at every possible landmark I can remember. I’ve passed through the Orient Arch about 4-5 times in my recent trips so at least I knew if it’s time to get off the bus. 

Once we alighted at the Orient Arch bus stop, we had no idea how we can reach Metropark Hotel. I was trying to picture the place as I saw it in Google map but it didn’t help. So we just walked along the small alleys, made a few turns and luckily we reached Rua De Pequim - where our hotel is located.
