Macau is known as the “Vegas of Asia”. The city was part of Portugal until 1999. It generates more revenues from gambling than anywhere else in the world. It is also much calmer and more attractive to tourist because of its infrastructures. Macau is essentially divided into 2 parts: Taipa/Cotai/Coloane and Macau proper.
Whenever I go to Hongkong, I usually go for a side trip in Macau because it will take you only just an hour to get there.
