On the island of Coloane you can hike up (or ride a bus) to the top of a large hill where you can find two places of interest. The first is the Turtle Temple (not sure if this is correct but that is what we call it). The second is the Ah-Ma statue which was carved to commemorate the handover of Macau from Portugal to China. Emily and her father hiked to the top one day and then the four of us took the bus to the top on the second trip. From the Turtle Temple it is a short walk up to the very top where the Ah-Ma statue is found. Great views of Macau and the South China Sea can be had from the top.
