- Regional Info:
- A former Portuguese colony, Macau was the first and the last European colony in Asia and much Portuguese and European influence and history remains. Macau is situated across the Pearl River about 60kms South-West of Hong Kong and includes two islands - Taipa and Coloane which are joined by a causeway and then to Macau City by bridges. It is one of the two Special Administrative Regions of China (the other being Hong Kong) and despite a relatively small population of around 600,000, it's economy is booming - largely due to manufacturing, tourism and gambling (Macau is the only location in China where you can legally gamble and income from gambling is in excess of $45 billion a year dwarfing the income generated in Las Vegas!). Macau is considered to be one of the world's richest cities but aside from the gambling, tourists are also attracted to it's culture, history and cuisine.
