Macau (/məˈkaʊ/; 澳門; 澳门; "Bay gate"), also spelled Macao, officially known as the Macao Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China, is a special administrative region on the southern coast of the People's Republic of China. Macau lies on the western side of the Pearl River Delta across from Hong Kong, which is about 64 kilometers to the east, and it is also bordered by Guangdong of Mainland China to the north and the South China Sea to the east and south. With an estimated population of around 636,200 living in an area of 30.3 km2 (11.6 sq mi), it is the most densely populated region in the world.
As Portuguese Macau, it was administered by the Portuguese Empire and its inheritor states from the mid-16th century until late 1999, when it was the last remaining European colony in Asia under Portugal. Portuguese traders first settled in Macau in the 1550s. In 1557, Macau was rented to Portugal from Ming China as a trading port. The Portuguese Empire administered the city under Chinese authority and sovereignty until 1887, when Macau became a colony. Sovereignty over Macau was transferred to China on 20 December 1999. The Joint Declaration on the Question of Macau and Macau Basic Law stipulate that Macau operate with a high degree of autonomy until at least 2049, fifty years after the transfer.

MACAU CASINO REVENUES COLLAPSE | China War on Corruption Making Macau Casino Industry Collaps A crackdown in corruption in China that has hushed the once frenzied Macau casino business took its toll on Wynn Resorts in the company's fourth quarter. Labor delays, for one, have pushed back the company's opening date of Chinese New Year 2016 for its $4.1 billion Wynn Palace casino-hotel into mid-2016 instead. Wynn talked about the formula that has worked in Las Vegas as he's focused properties there on non-casino experiences recognizing gambling was a result, not the cause of profits. There, room revenue, average daily rates, food and beverages and entertainment and shopping were all up in the quarter compared with a year prior. "It's a pretty big deal," DeCree said. He said it signals tha...

Come join us for a day trip from Hong Kong (香港) as we visit Macau covering the best things to do in one day in our Macau Travel Guide (澳門 - 澳门).

After arriving we took free transportation (provided by the casinos and hotels) to check out the Venetian Casino and Parisian Hotel. Then we were off to Taipa to mostly eat Macau street food and enjoy the old colonial architecture. We then made our way to Senado Square, the ruins of St. Paul's and Forte Monte while m...

Travel video about destination Macau in China. After 466 years, Portugal handed back the city of Macau to China. It is small and museum-like, a fine example of colonial Portugal on the South China Sea. The Fortaleza Do Monte is a typical Portuguese fortified complex strategically located on a hill above the old cathedral in the heart of the city. Its many old canons and mighty fortress walls are reminders of those times when invasion was a constant threat. The old centre of the city is the triangular Largo Do Senado, Senate Square. Its wonderful colonial buildings with their light-colored facades were built at the end of the 19th century and completely renovated in the final decade of the 20th. Macau's largest Buddhist temple, Templo de Kun Iam Tong, dates back 400 years to the Ming Dyn...

Today's feature travel video from Asia is of the top attractions worth considering while visiting in Macau, China including checking out Senado Square and the Ruins of Saint Paul's Cathedral. Feeling well rested after going to bed several hours earlier than normal, we felt a jolt of adrenaline about exploring the historic areas of Macau located on another island from the hotel we were staying at. Fortunately, our hotel offered 'free' transfer service from Cotai to the Macau Peninsula. We literally went from an island filled with nothing but luxury casinos to a more historic area that featured historic Portuguese inspired architecture, cobbled walkways and a plethora of people.

Christmas is a great time to travel in Mainland China. Whilst you get time off work or school back home, it is not a public holiday in the Middle Kingdom. It is the low season with cheap prices and no crowds. It is also the time when weather is best in the southern and western parts of the country. So we packed a small backpack and got on the bullet train to the famous Guilin in northern Guangxi province. The ticket costs ¥200 (€28) each way from the Hong Kong or Macau and ¥300 a night will land your family at best suites at Trip Advisor’s top accommodation in the province. We stayed at the Ron Inn in Guilin (ow.ly/WtFrK) and at Mountain Nest in Yangshuo (ow.ly/WtFwK). This heavily promoted region is home to many famous sights: the karst scenery around Li River, Longsheng rice terraces...
