Asia-Pol Secret Service - Wang Yu (1966) - Avenida de Sidónio Pais, Macau

The next shot is a view of the cars driving southwest along Avenida de Sidónio Pais close to the junction with Rua de Sacadura Cabral. In a bit of a kick in the teeth to someone (me) who believed Macau had done a good job in protecting its old housing stock, the rather elegant looking houses seen on the left side of the frame have all been redeveloped into high rises. Well, I guess it's still done a better job than Hong Kong.

On the right handside you can just make out the area where Escola Secundária Luso-Chinesa de Luís Gonzaga Gomes is located. The white topped wall in the second and third images is the school's outside wall. In fact in the bottom image you can just make out the curve in the wall that is the school entrance. In that same image is a low wall on the left which I believe probably belonged to Praça do Tap Seac, although it has since been replaced by a low railing.
