A Stroll Through Rua do Cunha—Savoring the Old Charm of Macau

Walking into Rua do Cunha feels like opening a door to the past, instantly immersing you in the unique charm of Macau. This narrow street is lined with low-rise but colorful buildings, bustling shops, and the enticing aroma of food fills the air. I stopped at an old pastry shop and tried a freshly baked almond cookie. It was crispy and sweet, leaving a lingering taste. Further down the street, the warm aroma from a Portuguese egg tart shop was irresistible, so I ordered one. The golden, crispy crust and rich egg flavor were satisfying with every bite. At the corner souvenir shop, shelves were filled with dried meat, nut candies, and unique souvenirs. The enthusiastic shop owner introduced me to Macau's traditional handicrafts, and as I listened intently, I felt the historical memories hidden within. As night fell, lanterns were lit, casting a warm orange glow over Rua do Cunha. This short street carries a rich culture and warmth, making it hard to leave. Rua do Cunha is not only a feast for the taste buds but also a cultural journey.
