It's a very interesting place, with a mix of old and new, ramshackle little villages in close proximity to (and sometimes within) cities.
I visited some temples
where there was lots of fragrant incense burning.
The temple of A-Ma in Macau had particularly unusual incense.
I also visited a Buddhist monastery
on a foggy day.
There were many street markets
(one of which had a yarn stand)
and some nice scenery
lots of interesting trees
I even saw a couple of rats
(They were part of the leftover Chinese New Year decorations)
and a sheep-themed tea set at the Museum of Teaware.
Speaking of which, I drank lots of tea
and of course ate a lot of tasty food
(That's sweet and sour tofu, not very authentic but completely delicious.)
It was also wonderfully warm most of the time, and I even got a bit of a sunburn.
I didn't knit a stitch but I did read, so reviews are forthcoming.
