Macao Tower’s Skywalk Experience

Want to experience the ultra-high stimulation, go to the Macau Tower! The Macau Tower located in the administrative region of China, is 338 meters high, ranks eighth highest in Asia and the tenth highest in the world. It is even taller than the Sky Tower in Auckland, the Eiffel Tower in Paris and the AMP Tower in Sydney. It was completed in December 2001 and is now a new tourism landmark in Macau.

The Macau Tower comprises of an observation platform with panoramic views, restaurants, shopping centers, theaters and offers the opportunity of performing the Skywalk, an exciting walk around the outer edge. It has the best views of Macao, and in recent years it has been employed for several adventure activities.

I believe many tourists who visit the Macau Tower will go to the observation deck on the 58th floor to see the scenery. The top level is the 61st floor. This floor is an “Adventure Park” where you can perform Skywalk, Skyjump, and even Bungy Jump.

At 233 meters high, the sky jump and bungee jumping of AJ Hackett from the outer edge of the tower, is the highest commercial “jump” in the world, and the second highest descent facility in the world, behind the Skyjump from the Stratosphere of Las Vegas at 252 meters. In addition to toiling as a lookout and entertainment, it is also used to broadcast radio and television signals.

Compared to Bungy Jump, Skywalk is very relaxing, but it still has to be designated as a safety measure. When the game is in progress, you can’t carry any objects, including mobile phones, cameras, wallets, etc. All of them must be placed in Locker, while glasses can be carried and tied with a rope. After wearing the designated T-shirt, the staff helped us to tie the sash and then walked out of the tower and started a stroll for about half an hour.

The entire Skywalk is mainly based on photographs, and it does not have a lot of exercises. The instructors of the same team also serve as photographers. He teaches each participant to pose for photographs, and some of them can be regarded as difficult actions, such as half-finger outstretched, or the entire body. When you are on the back, you will be a bit embarrassed at first, and you will be left alone!

However, after making a few moves, you will gradually start to grow bolder. In fact, the ropes are tied tightly, so do not be afraid to imagine that you can fly in mid-air. The whole process has no Handrail equipment, walking on the outdoor sightseeing corridor 223 meters away from the ground. If you have some courage and extra money, you can climb a 100-meter outdoor ladder onto the 338-meter-high Macau Tower to feel the world at its feet.

After that, you can enjoy yourself at the 360-degree revolving restaurant on the 60th floor, and the 180-degree air bar on the 59th floor has different landscape features during the day or night, allowing you to view Macao from many angles. In this one of the highest restaurants and bars in Macau holds a perfect romantic atmosphere.
