[Contest] Dream Trip To Macau

It is tempting to go Macau after finished watching the latest release of Korean drama "fated to Love You" featuring renown Jang Na Ra. The key of the storyline happened in Macau which highlight the beautiful Macau with its significant casinos of those look alike at Las Vegas. 




The Portuguese-influenced Macau, which is the first and last place in Asia conquered by European , is one of the two special administrative region (besides Hong Kong) at the Republic Of China. 




Highly dependent on the tourism (including gambling) and manufacturing sector, Macau or Macao (or in Chinese as 澳門 <Ao men> meant the inlet gate) is one of the richest region with high GDP per capita as announced in World Bank last year. 


Initially a place for refugees from China Republic, the people settled down as seafarers and fishermen. In 1950s, Ming Dynasty rented the place to Portuguese. The 31.3km2 area economy activity became robust with the development of a port. 

  
Based on the history, thus come with the must-visit historical sites such as the St. Paul ruins, Senado Square (which has been listed as UNESCO heritage site), Fortaleza domonte, Museums of Macau, Macau wine museum, and etc. 




For those fancy with Oriental places, The A-ma temple and Macau tower will definitely give the insights of how Macau has its name.




Perhaps for someone who want to try to gamble at any of its 33 casinos, he or she should learn the tricks on baccarat-the most played game. 

To fulfill the adrenaline rush, Macau Tower is the place to do plunge from the world's tallest bungee jump tower. I will definitely go for this for ONCE AND ONLY ONCE in lifetime. Booking can be made via this link for price inquiry and availability. 



For a more relaxing and serene scene, Coloane beach is the getaway place and also after the jump!!!. It is said that the sand is in black!!!






CNN suggested Portuguese egg tarts, porks, and black garlic chocolate.
