FORT DE GUIA AND ITS CHAPEL
Fort built in 1622, dominated by a lighthouse dating from 1864 which is the oldest lighthouse on the entire Chinese coast
Built in 1622 on Macau's highest point, the fort is dominated by a lighthouse dating from 1864 (closed to the public). The site was built to protect the city from attack by sea. It is the oldest lighthouse on the entire Chinese coast. The chapel, Notre-Dame-de-Guia, built in 1637, adds a spiritual atmosphere to the fort. Climbing up requires some effort, especially in very hot weather, but the panoramic view over the whole of Macau and China is well worth the detour.
