Guia Fortress, built in the 1620s, is a well-preserved military fortification that includes the Guia Lighthouse and a small chapel. The lighthouse, dating from 1865, is the oldest on the Chinese coast and still operational. Visitors can explore the ramparts, tunnels, and the chapel adorned with frescoes. The site offers sweeping views of Macau's skyline and the Pearl River Delta, making it a peaceful retreat from the city below.
