I couldn't resist visiting Macau, another Special Administrative Region of China. It's just one hour from Hong Kong by ferry.

Macau is different from Hong Kong thanks to the significant Portuguese influence in architecture, language, culture etc.

But first of all you can see the huge importance of a "gambling industry". Exciting! So I also tried to get rich - in the biggest casino in the world (The Venetian)... and nothing! :) Well, despite of that it was a great experience!

More information about Macau is e.g. at Wikipedia.
