Macau

Sites from our visit today

Macau was a Portuguese colony, and is both the first and last European colony in China. Like Hong Kong, it is a Special Administrative Region as of 1999. Under the policy of "one country, two systems", the People Republic of China's Central People's Government is responsible for defense. Macau maintains its own legal system, police force, monetary system.... According to The World Factbook, Macau has the second highest life expectancy in the world! The architecture of the central city is European because of the Portuguese influence but the cultural is very Chinese.

Thanks,
