Golden Lotus Square
金蓮花廣場
A city landmark on the New Port waterfront, featuring a gilded 'Lotus of Prosperity' sculpture. It's a popular spot for commemorating Macao's handover.
Golden Lotus Square sits on the Outer Harbour waterfront in the New Port. At its centre stands the 'Lotus of Prosperity,' a large sculpture gifted by the State Council to commemorate Macao's return. Made of gilded bronze, it is made up of a stem, petals and stamens, and stands about 6 meters tall. Its three-tiered red granite base symbolises the Macao peninsula, Taipa and Coloane. Next to the square is the Macao Variety Arts Theatre, where a flag-raising ceremony takes place every morning. The square is open all day and free. It's about a 10-minute walk from Hotel Lisboa and the Macao Museum of Art, and it's a great place for an evening stroll to enjoy the lights of the Outer Harbour and the Friendship Bridge.
