Coloane Village
Coloane Village is Macau's quietest corner, a cluster of pastel Portuguese-style facades, incense-filled temples and narrow lanes that once sheltered pirates along the South China Sea. It feels worlds away from the Cotai Strip's casino towers, trading neon for village bakeries, waterfront calçada promenades and the hilltop Chapel of St. Francis Xavier.
