MACAU IS DETERMINED TO PRESERVE its traditional heritage and culture. I’m showing you here the Lou Kau Mansion, one of Macau’s world heritage sites. One of these big mansion was owned by the rich and power at the time. The house caught my attention because it was owned by someone with the same last name as me! It is open to the public with no admission fee.

A sign in the house that said studying/ reading is best to empower oneself as a governor.Obviously someone in the family worked for the government.

Stained glass windows on the second floor.
Outside of the mansion are shops and food vendors. A popular bubble tea place is COMEBUY originated from Taiwan. I especially like its honey aloe drink.
