Dream Trip to Macau

The year is 1513. Around the month of May, a Portuguese explorer by the name Jorge Álvares reached the shores of Guangdong (Present day Ou Mun) in Southern China.  A group of fishermen who were out at sea were the first to notice this big expedition of 6 junk ships. They were puzzled by the looks and features of these foreign explorers as this was the first time they had come in contact with Europeans!
