ABOUT MACAU
Macau is a Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China
since December 20, 1999. Macau is located in Guangdong province, on the
western bank of the Pearl River Delta and comprised of the Macau Peninsula,
the islands of Taipa, Coloane and the reclaimed area COTAI. Macau preserves
many historical properties in the urban area. The Historic Centre of Macau,
which includes some twenty-five historic monuments and public squares, was
officially listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO on July 15, 2005.

In the past, Macau's economy is closely linked to that of Hong Kong and
Guangdong Province; in the present, Macau has developed industries such as
textiles, electronics and toys, as well as building upon a world class
tourist industry with a wide choice of hotels, resorts, sports facilities,
restaurants and casinos. Chinese and Portuguese are the official languages,
Cantonese being most widely spoken. The official languages are used in
government departments in all official documents and communications. English
is generally used in trade, tourism and commerce.

All visitors must hold a passport or a valid travel document. Visas are
required by all visitors (exception). Visitors can use the Macau
International Airport on Taipa Island for travelling to several destinations
in the region on direct flights or catch connecting flights to different
ports of Asia, Europe or America. If visitors want to go to Macau by sea,
journeys will take one hour from Hong Kong to Macau and vice versa via
TurboJET and the Cotai Strip CotaiJet™. There are two gateways available,
the Barrier Gate and the COTAI Frontier Post. For further details, please
