Formerly administered by the Portuguese, this high-energy city on the South China Sea is world-famous as a gaming destination and has also begun attracting visitors with an increasing array of shows, entertainment, and nightlife. The city's historic center, with its rich blend of Chinese and European architecture and culture, has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Spectacle (MGM Cotai)

Reviewed By BradJill - Hong Kong, China

Had dinner at MGM Cotai's Aji restaurant recently and enjoyed watching the Spectacle LED digital programme during our meal. The Spectacle is recognised by the Guiness World Records as the largest free-span gridshell glazed roof and includes a 25 LED screen placed around the atrium at MGM Cotai, showing a series of creative and artistic programmes. They seem to have changed the digital programme from what we remember seeing last. We particularly liked the colourful smoke show (see pictures). This was beautiful. Other science, culture, landscape programmes were nice to see as well. In the end, the Spectacle remains one of the most creative, innovative and interesting free attractions on the Cotai Strip. This is someone I encourage visitors to make time to see even if for only a few minutes.

Ruins of St. Paul's

Considered Macau’s most famous landmark, the ruins of this 16th-century cathedral features a spectacular façade with intricate carvings by Japanese monks.

One of the iconic landmark in Macau with great history. It's highly suggested to walk from the Senado Square via Macau museum where you get the best view / photo of Macau city and Ruins of St Paul's. The museum underneath the Ruin is worth to visit too.

The view of the Harbour and its surroundings just amazing. Great viewing during the day and just as beautiful at night. You can take a taxi, bus or hire a private vehicle and make stops for great photos.
