St. Francis Xavier is a small and modest church situated on a square by the same name off the promenade in Coloane Village.
From the outside, St. Francis Xavier is nice church to see, like many others in Macau. It reminds of a small version of St. Dominic's at Senado Square and features a small square with two small fountains and a statue structure. The interior is decorated in contemporary fashion, which is different to more traditional style of the majority of Macau's historic churches.
You can visit St. Francis Xavier rather quickly while taking in the various stops on the Memorable Buildings of Coloane Heritage Walk which passes by the church. Spend 5-10 minutes here and then you can move on to the next attraction.
The church sits at a pretty peaceful courtyard.
Surrounded by a very busy area, an island of tranquility in Coloane. A good museum adjacent to the Chapel.
Not only the outsides and insides of the church should visit. The surrounding is very beautiful. Must have a walk nearby. A library next to it also attractive.
A NICE PLACE TO VISIT
Beautiful church in Coloane Village. The set of Princess' Hours final eps.
영화"도둑들" 팬이여서 갔던곳,
근처 에그타르트 가게 간김에 들러서 사진 찍으면 예쁘게 나오는 곳입니다.
웨딩촬영 온 현지인들도 있었습니다.
Good ambience. Really calm without so much traffic and noise.
Take a picture with this chapel.
韓劇宮的拍攝場景,葡式教堂的色彩跟裝飾配色都跟華人信仰中心的寺廟不同。中午兩旁攤子還沒營業很好拍照,傍晚時分營業的時候就熱鬧多了。
有看過韓劇「宮-野蠻王妃」的最後場景就是在此取景攝影,不過廣場的兩邊被餐廳酒肆佔領,並各自拉上防水布是美中不足的地方!
教會真是會找地方!凹進岸邊,向海但不怕風浪!美!
The Chapel itself is not the most magnificent, but the area around it is. A nice cozy area within residential village, that stands out with it's remaining Portuguese architecture.
I visited the chapel in the early morning , It is quiet and tranquil . I like the sacred painting on the wall, and the map indicates the route of the Portuguese sailors coming to Asia in the end of 15th century .
