Day 3: Macau - Ruins of St Paul's （大三巴牌坊）

We took Bus No. 3 to Senado Square where Ruins of St Paul's was to be found.

Having insufficient fare is criminal

The bus stopped at the opposite side of Senado Square

Must take a pic first
The Portugese-flavoured architectures remind the frog-in-the-well me of the colonial buildings in Singapore

McDonald's building

Giordano building Bossini building

Streets leading up to Ruins of St Paul's

Beckoning the passersby to sample their wares

'Oh it's there!'

Look at the crazy photo-taking crowd!

I've always been curious about what's behind the Facade. The answer: nothing.

The 'ruins' - only grass, rocks and soil leh

The changing faces of Ruins of St Paul's

A bird's eye view from the top

Playing the fools below

View of the street from a window from the Facade

Ironically, a small temple at the side of the Ruins

A deserted Information counter. Probably abandoned due to the lack of queries.
Joining the crazy crowd to take a pic of the Facade 'cos I thought it crazier not to take a standard shot when we were already there

Before we left, we saw some people protesting against the local police (above)

and the Macau government

We would never have such guts to do likewise in Singapore.
