Macau was an interesting place, not only are there so many casinos but there is a lot of Christian Heritage that we have here. Portugal owned Macau for almost 500 years. It was here that many Christian Missionaries prepared before heading to Japan. Also, Robert Morrison the first Protestant Missionary sent to China died and is buried here. We spent a lot of time trying to find his grave site. Some of the other Christians with our group found it, but we will leave it for another visit.
