To Kwa Wan station

To Kwa Wan (Chinese: 土瓜灣) is an underground MTR rapid transit station on the Tuen Ma line in Hong Kong. It is located beneath Ma Tau Wai Road in central To Kwa Wan, Kowloon City District. The station was built as part of the Sha Tin to Central Link (SCL) project, and was opened on 27 June 2021 along with the rest of phase 2 of the Tuen Ma line (Kai Tak to Hung Hom). The station was constructed by a Samsung–Hsin Chong joint venture. During the planning stage, the station was provisionally named as Mau Tau Wai (Chinese: 馬頭圍) before being changed to To Kwa Wan in 2017. Station layout The platforms are stacked as the station is located under the narrow Ma Tau Wai Road with a high concentration of nearby buildings. This arrangement also allows trains to switch running sides. Trains on platform 1 switch to the left-hand side running, while trains on platform 2 switch to the right-hand side running. This is necessary since the Ma On Shan Rail was built with trains run on the right-hand side to facilitate interchange at Tai Wai, whereas on the West Rail line, trains run on the left like other railway lines in the territory.

Capela de Nossa Senhora da Guia (Macau)

A Capela de Nossa Senhora da Guia, a Fortaleza da Guia e o Farol da Guia fazem parte da lista dos monumentos históricos do "Centro Histórico de Macau", por sua vez incluído na Lista do Património Mundial da Humanidade da UNESCO. A Capela de Nossa Senhora da Guia, também chamada de Ermida de Nossa Senhora da Guia, foi construída por volta de 1622 no interior de Fortaleza da Guia. Originalmente, esta ermida era administrada por freiras clarissas, que residiram no local até à fundação do Convento de Santa Clara. Algumas lendas locais contam que, durante a tentativa de invasão holandesa (1622), a imagem da Virgem Maria saíu da capela e estendeu o manto para afastar as balas dos inimigos. Nesta ermida, foram sepultados alguns missionários do século XVII. O Farol da Guia situa-se nas proximidades desta capela. A fachada da capela é de cor branca e simples, com um frontão triangular assente sobre pilastras de cor amarela. Esta pequena capela, de nítido traçado português, é composta por um pequeno coro-alto, situado por cima da zona da entrada, e por uma nave de 16m por 4,7 m. As suas grossas paredes, decorados com pinturas murais, sustentam a abóbada interior. O telhado, em forma de arco, está coberto com telhas tradicionais vermelhas, feitos de cera. Em 1998, durante a realização de trabalhos de manutenção, foram descobertas pinturas murais no seu interior. Estas pinturas foram tapadas por camadas de cal, depositadas ao longo de quase dois séculos. Estes frescos ilustram personagens bíblicas e as suas respectivas histórias, e também ilustram figuras de estilo chinês (ex: morcegos, leões de pedra, bonsai…). É a única capela existente no Sul da China com pinturas decorativas no interior, representando perfeitamente um exemplo da dimensão multicultural de Macau (um lugar onde a cultura ocidental e oriental encontram-se e convivem harmoniosamente).

Chiesa di Sant'Antonio (Macao)

La chiesa di Sant'Antonio venne eretta prima del 1560 a San Antonio ed è considerata una delle tre chiese più antiche di Macao. Dal 2005 è parte del complesso di edifici storici appartenenti al centro storico di Macao iscritto nella lista dei beni patrimonio dell'umanità dell'UNESCO. Particolarità di questa chiesa è la presenza di una statua, oltre a quella presente nella navata centrale del santo patrono con il bambin Gesù al collo, di Sant'Antrea Andrea Kim Taegon, primo sacerdote e martire coreano che dedicò la sua vita alla conversione del suo paese. Storia Costruita dai padri gesuiti come primo nucleo della diffusione del cattolicesimo a Macao, venne inizialmente edificata in bambù e legno. Adiacente alla chiesa si trovava una residenza della Compagnia di Gesù. Nel 1638 venne ricostruita in pietra. In seguito ai due grandi incendi del 1809 e 1874 che la danneggiarono seriamente, la chiesa venne ricostruita entrambe le volte nel 1810 e nel 1875. La facciata neoclassica attuale venne costruita in seguito ad un altro incendio che la colpì nel 1930. Molti della comunità cattolica macaoense, continuando una lunga tradizione cittadina, sono soliti celebrare le nozze in questa chiesa in quanto, secondo i portoghesi sant'Antonio è il protettore degli innamorati. Ed essendo addobbata con fiori e decorazioni a festa, la chiesa prese il nome di Fa Vong Tong, ovvero "tempio del Re dei Fiori".

Igreja de Santo António (Macau)

A Igreja de Santo António é uma das três mais antigas igrejas de Macau. Foi construída em bambu e madeira, em 1565. Era o primeiro local onde os jesuítas se instalaram na Cidade, existindo inicialmente ao lado desta igreja uma residência da Companhia de Jesus. Em 1638, ela foi reconstruída em pedra e atingiu a dimensão actual. Sofreu outras grandes reparações em 1810 e 1875, porque houve dois grandes incêndios em 1809 e em 1874 que danificaram seriamente a igreja católica dedicada a Santo António (para os portugueses, ele é o padroeiro dos namorados). Outro incêndio determinou novas reparações em 1930, tendo sido realizados restauros posteriores na fachada e na torre sineira em 1940. No adro há uma cruz de pedra datada de 1638. Ao longo dos séculos, a igreja foi danificada e destruída várias vezes por incêndios e tufões, mas sempre foi reparada e reconstruída graças aos sacrifícios e esforços dos crentes católicos, com o apoio da Igreja Católica. Muitos habitantes de Macau, principalmente membros da comunidade portuguesa e macaense, celebram os seus casamento nesta Igreja. Como as pessoas vêem muitas vezes a igreja cheia de decorações, sinos, flores, casais e participantes com cachos de flores na mão, costumam dar a esta Igreja o nome, em chinês, de "Fa Vong Tong" (Templo do Rei das Flores). Esta estrutura eclesiástica de dois andares exibe um exterior neoclássico cinzento, coroado por um frontão tradicional. Uma torre sineira de três níveis ergue-se acima do edifício principal. As molduras das janelas pintadas de verde no piso superior acentuam as dimensões laterais da estrutura, realçando a sua importância arquitetónica. A nave principal está colocada uma estátua do St. António com o Menino Jesus ao colo. Também está colocada uma estátua de um santo especial: o Santo André Kim Taegon. Este santo e mártir da Igreja Católica é o primeiro sacerdote católico da Coreia e dedicou a sua vida a cristianizar o seu país. A Igreja de Santo António é incluído na Lista dos monumentos históricos do "Centro Histórico de Macau", por sua vez incluído na Lista do Património Mundial da Humanidade da UNESCO. Ela é também a igreja matriz da Paróquia de Santo António, uma das 6 paróquias da Diocese de Macau. Curiosidades Santo António é um santo "militar" e "Capitão" de Exército Português. Até 1999 (ano da transferência da soberania de Macau para a China), anualmente, em 13 de Junho (data da sua festa), realizava-se uma cerimónia em que o Presidente do Leal Senado lhe entrega o soldo e a sua imagem era levada em procissão ao redor da Igreja até ao Largo de Camões.
