Why visit Macao?

UNESCO has identified the city as the ‘Historic Centre of Macao’. It’s a vibrant city which successfully blends traditional Chinese characteristics Portuguese culture. With twenty-five world historical heritage sites in a single city, you’re spoilt for choice.

• Stroll through the European-style neoclassical buildings and browse the boutiques along Senado Square.
