Macau is a territory located in southeast China, and was until 1999 administered by Portugal as an overseas province. Like its formerly British neighbour Hong Kong, Macau is a Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China.

Gambling is Macau's biggest industry, and busloads arrive daily from mainland China to try their luck. In addition, many Hong Kongers arrive on weekends with the same aim

Other than some great picture taking opportunities we only spent 2days in Macau cause its all about Gambling and Jewellery shops which last time I checked where both not included on the "backpackers itinerary".

I'm so Jealous!
Hey, finally got a chance to read some of your latest blogs and look at your photos! I'm so jealous! It all looks amazing, I'm now wishing that I'd moved around a bit more when I was in Thailand...still, I can't complain.....5 months on Koh Tao wasn't all bad!!!! Hope you enjoy the last few bits of Asian life before you hit the madness of Sydney. You're not missing anything at home! Miss you.x
