Dream Trip to Macau
November 22, 2014
Currently Nuffnang Malaysia is holding a blog contest 'Macau Your Way To An Experience Of A Lifetime!' with a chance of flying to Macau for holiday! Thanks to Macau Government Tourist Office (MGTO), the 3 Nuffnangers with the Most Interesting Blog Post will be flying to Macau to experience a 3D2N ALL EXPENSES PAID HOLIDAY. Having said that, the return air ticket and two nights accommodation at a 4-star hotel IS included in that once-in-a-lifetime-free-holiday-package!
There are various things and attractions that are luring me to visit Macau as days pass by but I will just share three of the most amazing things of all time that I am aware of. First of all, it is none of the
Ruins of St. Paul. Image via plus.google.com |
Being inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2005, the Historic Centre of Macau is the 31st desinated World Heritage site in China. There are over 20 ancient monuments and urban squares located in the heart of this city such as the eminent A-Ma Temple, St. Dominic's Church, St. Lawrence's Church, Senado Square, Ruins of St. Paul's just to name a few.

Next, the second thing that attracts me the most into travelling to Macau is,
The Macau Tower. Image via www.dpreview.com |
As an adrenaline junkie, I love challenges that would raise my blood pressure and cause palpitations (without resulting in heart problems). Consequently, it is not surprising that I will jot down bungee jumping off the Macau Tower in my bucket list if I were to visit Macau.

The third thing that intrigues me to visit Macau is,
Portuguese Egg Tart. Image via portuguesefood.cu.cc |
It is one of the most famous food in Macau. If you did not try the Portuguese egg tart while you were in Macau, you have clearly not visited Macau! The flaky pastry shell, with rich and sweet egg custard filling having a consistency similar to creme brulee is probably one of the most tastiest food you will ever consume in life. The caramelized top layer plays a vital role in its taste and the Portuguese egg tart is best eaten warm.

Why Should I be Sent for This Superb Opportunity
I have always wanted to learn more about Macau. Aside from the historical events and mouth-watering delicacies, I believe that Macau has more to offer. Furthermore, I have read a cornucopia of information regarding Macau and even seen lots of breath-taking pictures. Nonetheless, I do not have the opportunity to witness all the wonderful buildings and monuments before my own eyes as I am just a student whom still need to depend on my parents for my financial needs. It is true that I can ask them to fund me for a trip to Macau, but I choose not to do so as part of their hard-earned money has been used for me to study in medical school. As the saying goes,' The best way to know about a place is to be there and experience things yourself instead of listening to others' experiences. I sincerely hope that I can be given this opportunity to experience all the interesting things as well as gaining in-depth knowledge about Macau myself.
