There are many interesting places to visit here. There are some old buildings including churches, temples and a fort. I first visited the fort last year. Then I took some friends there last week. They all loved it! You should also go to the Macau Tower. It is one of the tallest buildings in Macau. You can have a 360° view of Macau from there. Macau Fisherman's Wharf is also great. There are restaurants and rides. I have only been there once, but I would love to go again. Do you want to do some shopping? Senado Square is good. I have bought some nice clothes there. Last month I went to a bakery and they had a free cookie tasting — delicious! Talking of food, do you still like spicy food? I think ‘The Boathouse’ is the best restaurant for you.
