Macau is a touristic region in southern China about 37 miles southwest of Hong Kong. Once a colony of Portugal, this seaside peninsula has a distinct heritage that blends Chinese and Portuguese cultures. Macau is best known as the "Las Vegas" of Asia, since many casinos, shopping and world-class entertainment establishments lie on the Cotai Strip in Macau. Be sure to take in a bit of Macau history and visit A-Ma Temple built in 1448, the ruins of St. Paul's Cathedral built in 1602, and Macau Tower. Hong Kong is just a ferry ride away.
