Raj Dhaliwal
★★★★★a year agoIf you want/need a break from the Casinos in Macau, this is a good day trip. Lots of sites to see pretty close together. Be prepared to walk. You can try so many different activities from shopping, eating, learning the history of how Macau became the place it is today. A short trip via ferry or bus from Hong Kong will get you there in a hour and then you’re right in the thick of things.
