the Broadway Street. Wrapping up with warmth and rapturous atmosphere, the

returned with joy and contentment.

Mr. Carson Ma, Head of Youth Committee of Sports and Olympic Committee of Macau,

Gymnasts Yang Wei was delighted to come to Broadway Macau, he said, “This is my

first time to Broadway Macau and it is so great to try the local signature dishes while

watching the live performing on street. As our stay is brief, we are grateful that there are

many Macau traditional food and gifts in Broadway Macau for just one-stop and you can

have them all.”

The medalists were shortly recognized by passers-by and some of them even stopped

and asked the medalists to take photos together and capture the memorable moment.

The medalists returned to the hotel after their fascinating experience at Broadway

Macau to share with their friends and families. During their stay, the medalists also

visited local communities and schools to have a close interaction with citizens and

students.
