Senado Square is a world heritage, which is famous for its rich architectural tradition, such as St. Dominic's Church, the Holy House of Mercy, Leal Senado Building and Sam Kai Vui Kun Temple, all reflect the correlation of modernity and cultural exchange of East and West.
Squares and piazzas all around the world cater to the "Cafe Society", where visitors and locals can sit at a table and watch the world go by over a cup of coffee, and in Macau there is no shortage of squares, which these days are usually paved in elegant wavy patterns featuring marine creatures, inspired by the tones and materials of Portugal. These attractively paved meeting places can be found in Senado Square, Barra Square, Lilau Square, St. Augustine's Square, St. Dominic's Square, Cathedral Square, Camoes Square and the Company of Jesus Square.
The classically constructed Senado Square is one of the most famous venues in Macau that should not be missed. It is a popular place for holding all sorts of cultural events. In its center, there is a famous fountain and it had been renovated for many times, and currently a celestial globe as used by pioneering Portuguese seamen can be seen in the middle of the fountain, a captivating sight under lighting at night.
