A-Ma Festival
April
Celebrated every April, this festival is dedicated to A-Ma, a Taoist goddess particularly revered in Macau, who was said to have saved seafarers and protect fisherfolk. Macao’s name came to be when Portuguese soldiers asked for the name of the place, and locals replied ‘A-Ma-Gao’ (Bay of A-Ma). During this festival, a grand ceremony is put on at the A-Ma Cultural Village, along with a parade, Chinese and Portuguese art troupe performances, and week-long Chinese opera performed at the A-Ma Temple.
Location Coloane, Macao

This was our second trip with Remote Lands... On Java, our guide was excellent and we loved being the only people at Borobudur after the monument closed to the public.
