Macau is a City with great wonders. 
I've been to Macau so many times. Well, it's mainly because I can go to see my cousin. ~37!
However, as a city, I think one line describes it well, CITY OF DREAMS. I've went to Macau via boat, plane, road and car. It is fascinating how so many people can fit into one small island. 
As a city that was colonised by the portugeuse government, Macau has some truly wonderful and/ or exotict architectures and history. Close to HK, Macau exceled however, not in finance, but rather in Gambling. 
It's government income are based largely on the tax from gambling industry. Despite that, the citizens of Macau actually have great living incentives. 
It is called the EASTERN LAS VEGAS, and this is easily seen by the fact that it has so many stunning lights and of course, the dazzling casinos. As a byproduct, the industry of luxury shops flourished in Macau. #1923# 
Go to the casinos, City of Dreams, The Venetian, Galaxy ...... The first sight of them are their wonderful architectures. And then the stunning lights at night and the ever production of noise and shows. Here you see families, you see couples you see gamblers. You will of course see the joy, tears and bizzare of gambling. And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the City of Dreams.
