Perched atop the highest point of the Macau Peninsula, Guia Fortress (built in 1622) offers sweeping views of the entire area. The fortress complex includes a lighthouse and a charming chapel. The Guia Lighthouse (erected in 1864) holds the distinction of being the first modern lighthouse on the Chinese coast, its precise coordinates serving as Macau's anchor on the world map. Adjacent to the lighthouse stands the Chapel of Our Lady of the Snows (built in 1622). Inside, the domed ceiling and walls are adorned with vibrant frescoes depicting biblical scenes and figures. These artworks uniquely blend Western artistic techniques with traditional Chinese painting methods, creating a one-of-a-kind masterpiece among Macau's many chapels.
