Good morning..

How are all of you? The ruins of Saint Paul have been an amazing landmark to visit.

After around 400 years, this part of the building still stands today. I think the builders would have been proud if they were here today.

After walking through the entrance, I noticed that there is a museum at the back of the facade.

THE RUINS OF SAINT PAUL

A Unesco World Heritage Site and one of Macau's well known landmarks.

You need to queue for a while before entering the main areas of the museum. It has a lot of historical relics from the past that are related.

I am not going to write a lot of details about these relics because I am not really familiar with these and it would not be right to give any remarks that I have not done research on. But these are amazing to look at and may have been here for a couple of hundred years.

The above pictures seem to show the remnants of the original structure.

The collection here includes statues, paintings, and liturgical or religious vessels.

Huge paintings on the walls. This museum is free, and anyone can walk in and have a look.

The cobblestone path leads you to the main street below. It takes you back to the time when roads were not made of Bitumen.

There are a couple of routes around, and this one is less crowded. Beside,s this area is a temple. I went there to just pray for safety.

Hirono is taking a photo with my wife. We are Pop Mart fans. We bought this before heading to the ruins here.

Thank you very much for reading this post. After some time, if I have already created a video, I will share it here.
