Cemetery of St. Michael the Archangel

In a shaded corner at the foot of Guia Hill lies the St. Michael the Archangel Necropolis (Cemitério de São Miguel Arcanjo). For generations, the most respected families of the Portuguese and Macanese communities have found their final resting place here. Unlike the neighboring, more tourist-famous Protestant Cemetery, this necropolis holds the stories not of foreign visitors, but of those who lived in Macao as their only home.
