Macau for walkers

| No Comments

We�ve been puttering around the various districts around Macau and I�ll have to admit, I�m rethinking my original opinion of the second SAR of the PRC. I kinda like it.

Although Macau is still kind of sleepy (many of the shops in the non tourist areas close around 2000) and dangerous looking (lots of dark alleys and the triads are big here), much of the city is still narrow alleys and colonial architecture.

Shopping is scenic, but still no gore-tex to be found.

Guess I�m going to Stanley to purchase gore-tex.

Besides the casinos, the MSAR has been making efforts to preserve many of the old buildings and has aspirations to join the UN�s list of world heritage sites.

More power to them.
