Rowan in Macau is not just a paradise for Portuguese tarts. This time we will take you to experience a day of quiet slow life in Macau, with tradition, photography and small pleasures. New road trip recommendation, breakfast eat Portuguese tart, play along the way to the black sand beach to enjoy the leisure life, and try the popular ice cream, then interact with stray cats up close, and finally return to New Casino to sit on the unique 8-shaped Ferris wheel, perfect ending! In fact, the trip is very chill, with the sunny sky suitable for beautiful photos, outdoor modern architecture can become the main character of the trip. No matter how many times I have been to Macau, this circular one-day route is definitely still fresh!
One-day quiet trip to Rowan is recommended
One-day itinerary guide:
[Andrew's Bakery]—It's not just egg tarts
It is recommended to visit the must-visit Andrew Bakery (head office) in the morning, which is located on the ground floor of 1 Tart Sand Street in downtown Rowan. The freshly baked Portuguese tarts are crispy on the outside and smooth on the inside. There are also egg white cakes, chocolate cake buns, cheesecakes, etc. The takeaway box goes to the next stop and enjoys the local breakfast chill.
[Black Sand Beach] - Beach / Coconut / Free Life
Take the Portuguese tart out to the black sand beach (open all day long), sit comfortably on the beach, next to some small shops have coconut to buy (remember to pay attention to the weather!), while tasting the Portuguese tart, while looking at the sea drinking coconut, real Macau slow life Style. There are not many people here, so it's perfect for having fun with friends/couples.
[ice on me ice on me] — Super red ice sugar strawberry check-in
Then walk back to 5 Tin Wan Street, Macau, to find the popular dessert shop "Ice on My Body", which focuses on iced strawberries, very refreshing! If you are afraid of crowds, you can go earlier, sit down and chill slowly, eat an ice cream, take a few photos, just as addictive. Perfect for summer Macau check-in list!
[Rowan Cat Paradise]—Relax with cats playing
There is also an Animal Welfare Association stray cat park nearby, where cats can come and go freely, which is suitable for cat owners to explore. You can go in and play with your furry and help feed them. If you have more time, you might as well learn more about animal conservation, volunteering for a day is more meaningful.
