In Macau, there is many a place where one can enjoy blissful relaxation. The nation is blessed with a variety of natural gifts that are a delight to explore. It boasts excellent climatic conditions that give rise to an array of different species of flora and a gentle cool surrounding. The Parks in Macau are some of the most popular locations to spend a warm morning or a breezy evening. Being blessed with a natural beauty, artificial landscaping only adds to its magical appeal. One of the most popular parks in Macau is the beautiful Sun Yat Sen Park. Located on the northwest of the Macau peninsula, it is actually one of the 43 Sun Yat Sen Parks in the world.
In addition to the beauty of Sun Yat Sen, the park boasts nearly 3 decades of history. When it was created in 1987, it was called the Canol Dos Patos Park, primarily to celebrate the nation’s friendship with Portugal, but all this changed in 1990. A large statue of the iconic leader Dr. Sun Yat Sen was erected and since then it has been named after him. Doctor Sun Yet Sen played a huge part in the history of Macau. He has been celebrated in China as the father of the revolution and even as the father of the Republic.
The Beautiful Sun Yet Sen Park boasts the best of both the Eastern and Western Worlds. The Park is divided into 2 sections; one section exhibits typical Chinese landscaping, adorned completely with arched bridges, artificial lakes, towers and pavilions, almost as if it was straight off a Chinese painting. The other section of the park portrays a more European style complete with beautiful greenhouse gardens and athletic facilities. There is even a children’s playground right in the center of the park.
The park has so much to see within its boundaries. Monuments from the past, unmatched scenic appeal, sport facilities, a swimming pool, and an open-air theatre are amongst its many attractions. While basking in the bliss of Macau, stay at a luxury Macau Hotel to fully relax and unwind on your vacation. One excellent option is the Galaxy Macau Resort hotel. This with its many pampering perks and facilities makes it one of the finest of all Macau hotels.
