Arriving Macau - Portuguese influence III
Talk about pavers, the contrast wavy design seen at the Leal Senado Square on Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro really examplifies Portuguese pavement architure.
The buildings surrounding the square are just equally Southern European, painted colorfully with lots of flower boxes hanging outside; the twist: Chinese signs.
There is also Taipa bridge, the bump in the middle looks exactly like the Ponte Vasco da Gama in Lisbon.
However Portuguese influence is fading, Macau is building upon its past into the future, literally speaking.
