The main observation level, situated 223 meters above ground, offers a panoramic view of the surrounding area for up to 50 kilometers. One of the tower's major features is its highest observation level, which affords visitors an unparalleled view of the city's skyline.

Apart from fine dining, the Macau Tower houses several brand name specialty shops, including the largest toy shop in Macau, providing visitors with a one-stop-shop experience for shopping, sightseeing, and entertainment.
For adrenaline junkies, the Macau Tower offers the thrill of a lifetime with the AJ Hackett Skyjump experience. Participants leap from a height of 233 meters in just 20 seconds, reaching a speed of 75 kilometers per hour.
The Skyjumpers wear a specially designed flight suit connected to three steel wires that can withstand 3000kg of tension, ensuring a smooth and stable jump even in strong winds.
The landing process is entirely unassisted, with no hands or engines involved, providing a genuinely exhilarating experience.
Another extreme activity offered by the Macau Tower is the bungee jump, which is the world's tallest commercial bungee jump facility. It allows visitors to climb to the top of the tower and jump off from a height of 233 meters.
AJ Hackett launched this world-record-setting jump on December 17, 2006, creating two Guinness World Records for the tower: "Highest Bungee Jump from a Building" and "World's Tallest Commercial Bungee Jump Facility."
The Macau Tower has something for everyone, from fine dining and shopping to extreme sports and breathtaking views. It is undoubtedly one of the city's most famous landmarks and a must-visit destination for anyone visiting Macau.
