Hey everyone, first of all I would like to welcome you all to my new contribution and hope you have a pleasant start to the new week! In my new contribution I would like to share something about my time in Macau and I am happy if you like my contribution.

Anyone who follows my posts knows that I have already posted something about the Special administrative region Macau in the past and I was surprised myself how much I could visit there in just one day and I think, I used my time well. What I could not miss was a view over the city and one of the best spots for these purposes is certainly the Macau Tower which is over 300 meters high and not only offers a view. I have not had the experience myself, but there is even the possibility to do a bunge jump, which is why many athletes come here specially to make this experience, but it can also be something for other interested people who are looking for a certain kick. Sports events take place here from time to time, which are broadcast in various media and in addition to these aspects, visitors can enjoy a breathtaking view or enjoy a coffee at this height. As I have noticed, a Guinness world record has even been set here and numerous legendary athletes were once here to visit the tower and these diverse aspects are probably a large factor why people should stop by here.

From time to time, special events or meetings on a business level also take place here, but these are usually no small events for private individuals but rather international meetings, but it can also be rented for weddings. The Macau Tower has developed into one of the most important sights in the city and the modern architecture is also not to be neglected, which was designed by an architect from New Zealand and cost over one billion Hong Kong dollars and the tower was completed at the beginning of the 21st century. To get to the top, visitors have to get into an elevator which is up in just 60 seconds and the special thing is that the elevator is even transparent and visitors can perceive the ride in a very unique way. The tower is located in the southern part of Macau and there are regular buses and I can only recommend every visitor to the city to pay a visit here and I would say that an hour of stay is enough, but it depends entirely on whether someone drinks something upstairs or how he spends his time there in general.

Thank you very much for stopping by and I hope you could learn something new and like my post! I captured these pictures with my Sony Alpha 6000 plus 55-210 mm lens and iPhone 16.
