Hengqin

Hengqin is an island located in Zhuhai, Guangdong Province, with a portion leased to Macau. It serves as a special economic zone and is the site of the University of Macau's new campus. Travelers visit the area to see the modern campus architecture and explore the transition between the administrative jurisdictions of Zhuhai and Macau.

Getting There

From Macau city centre, the area is accessible via taxi or public bus. The journey typically takes 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic and the specific border crossing used.

Duration of Visit

Allow approximately 3 to 5 hours to walk through the university campus and explore the surrounding developed zones.

When to Visit

The area is best visited during the weekday to avoid the larger crowds that arrive on weekends. Because much of the attraction consists of outdoor walking paths and open campus spaces, visiting during the cooler autumn or spring months is recommended to avoid extreme heat and humidity.

  • Zhuhai Chimelong Ocean Kingdom (3km)
  • Alto de Coloane (5.6km)
  • Macao Studio City (5.7km)
