📅 Itinerary We took a tour bus from Hong Kong, crossing the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, and then to Zhuhai. We stayed overnight at the DoubleTree by Hilton. The next day, it was a few minutes' walk to the Hengqin Port, making it a breeze to Macau. The "Lucky Bus" with different routes was very convenient. 👍🏻 We went to Guanye Street, which was very lively. 👍🏻 We enjoyed Portuguese egg tarts, pork chop buns, and other delicious food. 😋 We also visited the Water Monster limited edition store and bought the Playboy AP duck I'd always wanted. 💗 Finally, we visited the G-Dragon exhibition. 🐉 It was very satisfying. 👍🏻
