(in general, though, use the free casino shuttle buses to your advantage, especially after arriving and on your way off the island. for example, the Grand Lisboa shuttle bus from the Macau ferry terminal will take you very close to the old center.)<\/p>\n<p>oh, another protip: there are SIM cards sold in vending machines at the Macao ferry terminal, but if you decide to brave it with wifi, there is a pretty decent free network called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wifi.gov.mo\/en\/\">WiFi Go<\/a> located at all the major tourist attractions. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/jonk\/10080871295\/\" title=\"upload by jon|k, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2831\/10080871295_1cd1478dae_z.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" alt=\"upload\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/jonk\/10080985613\/\" title=\"upload by jon|k, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5495\/10080985613_b386561081_z.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" alt=\"upload\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/jonk\/10080897255\/\" title=\"upload by jon|k, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7303\/10080897255_9b8deab70d_z.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" alt=\"upload\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/jonk\/10080928206\/\" title=\"#nofilter by jon|k, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2872\/10080928206_b871f632f5_z.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" alt=\"#nofilter\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/jonk\/10080929276\/\" title=\"upload by jon|k, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7455\/10080929276_3ee0f97340_z.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" alt=\"upload\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/jonk\/10080852584\/\" title=\"upload by jon|k, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2882\/10080852584_69efcd7181_z.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" alt=\"upload\"><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>sidebar<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/foursquare.com\/v\/a-lorcha\/4bac642bf964a5200bf33ae3\">A Lorcha<\/a> just up the street on the right from the temple has some excellent Portuguese\/Macanese food. in fact, it&#8217;s better than the food we remember eating in Portugal! wifi password is the long number written on a sign at the bar.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>we took a cab to the A-Ma Temple (from which Macao\/Macau gets its name) from the old center and man are cabs hard to find&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":59,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"jetpack_publicize_message":"Instawalk -- A-Ma Temple (And Some Random Macao Tips) #travel #travelblog","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[7],"tags":[32,1135,460,461],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.13 -
