Gambling, Macau

Macau, also known as "Oriental Las Vegas", is now one of the three largest gambling cities in the world. Commercial Gambling, which is booming in Macau and has already become an important feature of Macau's economy, has a history of more than 150 years in Macau, and by 1900, because of the infiltration of western culture, the western styles of commercial gambling were introduced into Macau, blending into the local styles, thus forming the diversified infrastructure of modern commercial gambling. Gambling in Macau is a kind of entertainment activity. Gambling casinos throughout the city are inevitably packed with people from all over the world who come to seek their fortunes. Yet you can get a lot of fun from the casinos, instead of only winning or losing money.

Tips: The casinos in Macau accept only Hong Kong dollars and Macau Patacas and guests can exchange money either at casino counters or the nearby banks. And there is a minimum age requirement of 18 for visitors and 21 for locals in all casinos.
