Macau is not only the St. Paul's, it is better to come here than to see people in the St. Paul's! Take the bus to Mage Temple Station, climb the slope along the Mage Xiexiang to the Port Authority Building, and then go to the front of Yapojing, follow the signs to Bishop's Mountain. There is the Bishop's Hill Church, the Macau Tower is in front of you, and the SAR Government is nearby!

    The Bishop Hill in Macau is a great place to overlook the South, the West Bay and even the Macau Peninsula. On the top of the mountain, there is a Southern European-style yellow building, which is now the residence of the Portuguese Consul General in Macau and Hong Kong. According to the sign at the door, it was once the oldest five-star hotel in Macau's history, the Peak View Hotel, built in 1890. However, after many changes of hands, it has been changed to shelters, recuperations and schools. However, it is for the owner of the house to see the scenery. The visitors can only look at the house.

    Wangyang Mountain in the west, there is Bishop Mountain Chapel and a watchtower. The watchtower can see Macau Tower, Grand Lisboa and other iconic buildings in Macau. There are a lot fewer tourists than the original, quiet ~ next to the mansion ~

    Macau has two very famous mountains, one is known as Dongwangyang Mountain (Songshan), because there are snowy Notre Dame Church, Songshan Fort, etc., you can also take the cable car up the mountain (Songshan cable car, very cheap, one way 2.5 or 3 yuan, I forgot, just a few minutes). On the other side of the west Wangyang Mountain, due to the inconvenient traffic (you can only walk slowly or directly at the foot of the mountain, my colleague was playing before, go up the mountain for at least 50 minutes, mainly to find the way time is more used, and the mountain is still quite steep) and the fun is not very strong (There is only one church above, and there are no other attractions in the whole mountain), so there are really few tourists to Wangyang Mountain in the west. I went up the mountain from the side of Jinghu Hospital, and I can also look at this famous hospital in modern Chinese history. When I arrived at the top of the mountain, the scenery was good, and Macau felt a little under my feet. And during the summer vacation, many Macau people took wedding photos here. Curiosity tourists may wish to come and see. By the way, the official down the mountain road, there are Macau police stationed along the way, down the mountainside, I was still stopped, it turned out that the former chief executive He Houqi lived here, his car was going to come out, so passers-by had to avoid. Interested may wish to pay attention when going down the mountain, each house building is very distinctive, of course, the photo is not allowed.

    Xiwangyang Mountain (Portuguese: Colina da Penha), commonly known as Bishop Mountain, is the third high mountain on the Macau Peninsula, with a high altitude of 62.7 meters. Xiwangyang Mountain is near the inner port in the west, the former is near the South Bay and the southwest is connected to Mage Mountain. It is now one of the senior residential areas in the Macau Peninsula, which is a wind-sun parish. Its name is "West Wangyang", compared to the East Wangyang Mountain; because the former West Wangyang Mountain peak has the Catholic bishops' mansion of Macau Diocese, it is commonly known as Bishop Mountain. At the top of the mountain, the view is excellent, and the whole Macau Peninsula and Taipa scenery is unobstructed.

    Macau has a church in the west of the Yangshan Mountain and you can see the scenery of Macau from a distance. The church is very solemn and it is a good place to punch in.
