Major reclaimed areas include the Ilha Verde area, Areia Preta, lao Hon, Hipódromo, the early twentieth century reclamation of the Porto Exterior, subsequent reclamation projects of the Porto Exterior (Zona de Aterros do Porto Exterior or ZAPE and the Novos Aterros do Porto Exterior or NAPE), and the enclosure of the Praia Grande project on the peninsula, the natural reclamation between the former islets of Taipa Grande and Taipa Pequena (Baixa da Taipa) which have now formed Taipa, the more recent reclamation just to the west of Ponta da Cabrita in north-east Taipa, and the even more recent airport reclamation to the east of Taipa.
On Taipa Island, there are two trails, the 2.2km Taipa Grande and 2.3km Taipa Pequena which take hikers to the two highest points of the island, offering a panoramic view of Macau. The Taipa Grande trail takes about 2? hours and can be reached through a short paved road off the Estrada Colonel Nicolau de Mesquita, near the United Chinese Cemetery. Adjacent to the trail on the east side of Taipa Grande, near the airport, is the Taipa Grande Nature Park. The Taipa Pequena trail can be accessed from the Estrada Lou Lim Ieoc, behind the Regency Hotel, and takes about two hours.
This 6,000-square-foot apartment, on the top floor of a hillside building in the Macao region of China, has an indoor pool and a rooftop terrace with views of the city’s skyline and its many high-rise casinos.[…] The kitchen has stainless steel counters and cabinetry, a breakfast bar and windows with views of Taipa Pequena, an undeveloped hill nearby with nature trails.
Taipa Quebrada was an anchorage in Taipa island that at the time was formed by two small islands, Taipa Grande (or Taipa Quebrada), and Taipa Pequena, initially separated by a narrow channel.
