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. Macau's main draw is without a doubt the casinos, so if you are not into gambling, is there anything in Macau worth a visit? The city's historic center, with its rich blend of Chinese and European architecture and culture, has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. More than anything, Macau is about enjoying the contrasting atmospheres, a mix of laid-back Mediterranean and hectic Chinese pace, beautiful and well-preserved colonial architecture.
