About Lai Chi Vun
Where to stay in Lai Chi Vun
Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.
Lai Chi Vun has no hotel of its own. The village holds households rather than rooms, and the separation from the urban part of Macau that shaped it also means any bed near 荔枝碗村 is really a bed somewhere else on Coloane. Coloane holds the rooms.
A stay here means a room on Coloane, a road each way, and a village at the end of it.
About Lai Chi Vun
What are the main landmarks in Lai Chi Vun?
No monument marks the place. Lai Chi Vun is a village and nothing more, a small cluster of households on the south-western side of Coloane, and its separation from the urban part of Macau is what a visitor notices before anything else. Ká Hó Village, the larger of the two, sits elsewhere on Coloane.
Walking is the only way through 荔枝碗村.
What is the history of Lai Chi Vun?
Distance did the work here. Lai Chi Vun grew as a village on the far side of Coloane, and the same separation from the urban part of Macau that kept it quiet also thinned it, household by household, as villagers moved away. In Chinese the village is 荔枝碗村. 九澳村, the neighbour, runs larger.
Where is Lai Chi Vun?
Lai Chi Vun lies in the south-western part of Coloane (路環), set apart from the urban districts of Macau by the ground between them.
