Small City, Big Discovery Urban Orienteering Competition
This competition is organized to promote the Macao Government Tourism Office's four newly launched tour routes: Historical Footprints, Green Cultural and Creative, Sino-Portuguese Convergence, and Arts Exploration. It aims to deepen local citizens' understanding of these routes and explore the four aspects of culture, history, art, and cultural creativity. As Macao is positioned as a World Centre of Tourism and Leisure and a UNESCO World Heritage City, the event aims to foster a positive atmosphere for cultural heritage protection, encourage community participation, and raise awareness of the various effects of Macao's tourism industry in recent years, promoting diversified development and a harmonious society.
