We came to Felicidade in our Taiwan trip on a sunny day and the town with small and neat streets covered us from the sunlight. The doors and windows of the houses are all painted in red though the walls and roofs can be old, doors and windows are new reddish. There are many shops and small restaurants with cheap... More

Rua da Felicidade is just a short narrow street with old houses. We came here just for Cheung Kei Noodles, a popular small typical chinese shop for its popular shrimp roes noodles. More

We made a return trip to Rua da Felicidade as we wanted to see what it looked like with all the red shutters and doors closed instead of being busy with locals, visitors and open shops. So we hit the streets early, at least by Macau standards, arriving around 8.30am on Monday morning during the CNY holiday. All shops were... More

This famous old street is tucked away from the main drag, yet not difficult to find at all. If you can find Senado Square (you will!), this street is just a one to two minute walk from Avenida De Almeida Ribeiro. This street is called "Fook Lung Sun Gaai" in Chinese, which will help you to find if you ask... More

Rua de Felicidade is weathered, but authentic and populous, in pleasant contrast to denatured heritage mansions or horrible mainland-style strip mall along Rua de Pedro Nolasco da Silva (the latter seems to be metastasizing in all directions). The street used to be lined with brothels, and one can even stay in one (former), it's called Hospedaria San Va. On the... More

Rua da Falicidade is an interesting street but not really a must-see during your visit of the Senado Square area to St. Pauls. There are so many side streets in this area that are very interesting for strolling, making it less critical to see this slightly more touristy street (Rua). We recommend that you wonder many of the streets near... More
