About Rua do Cunha

Rua do Cunha (官也街, Cunha Street) is a narrow pedestrian street, about 136 m long, in Vila da Taipa, the town centre of Taipa. It is named after Pedro Alexandrino da Cunha, a Portuguese navy captain and the 81st Governor of Macau, who arrived in 1850 and died of cholera 37 days later, one of the first victims of the disease in Macau. The street is known for souvenir shops selling Macanese snacks such as almond cakes, phoenix egg rolls, coconut flakes, cherikoff and peanut candy. It is also known for its Portuguese restaurants, among them O Santos, in business since 1989, and O Galo.
