The Historic Centre of Macao is an urban area within the old city of Macao, including  8 squares and 22 historic buildings that are closely interconnected. The “Heritage City Tours” will be led by professional guides, who will lead participants to explore different World Heritage buildings and tell the story of each building along the way. The activity also features illustrators who will teach the technique of creating a travel diary, so that participants can capture the wonderful personalised moments of their tours and record everything in their unique travel diaries. The guided tours will include a total of five routes:
