My sister and I visited the Jardim de Lou Lim Ioc; it is a hidden gem in the heart of Macau. This historical garden offers a peaceful escape right in the center of town. It's a great place for anyone looking for tranquility, as the garden is wonderfully quiet, even though it’s located in such a convenient, central area.
The garden is filled with beautiful rock formations, adding a touch of natural beauty to the surroundings. There’s also a lovely pond teeming with fish, which adds to the serene atmosphere and you can even feed them with fish food. Trees and plants abound, making it a lush and green retreat.
One of the best things about Jardim de Lou Lim Ioc is that there's no entrance fee, making it a perfect, low-cost place to relax and unwind. The sign indicates that it opens as early as 6 AM, making it ideal for a morning walk or an early start to the day. The pathways are well-maintained, even and paved, ensuring a comfortable stroll through the garden.
I really enjoy spending time here—it’s a peaceful oasis that offers a lovely blend of nature and history, and I highly recommend it to anyone...

Another section of the original estate was given as land for public housing and is not integrated...
