There's nothing much to do in Macau than to gamble and go Casino hopping. I've visited this country twice and my itinerary has been the same both times! We went around the city via the casino buses which are all FREE and watched different hotel lobby lights and water shows for FREE again haha that's why I highly recommend this place for budget travelers visiting HK because you will only spend few dollars to visit Macau for a day-trip.
On my second trip though, we splurged a bit because we were intrigued by their famous The House of Dancing Water show in City of Dreams, Cotai Macau. One ticket costs about Php 3,500--quite pricey but it's super worth it!
The House of Dancing Water is the world's largest and most spectacular water-based show and it is exclusive to Macau. The theater is a 270-degree theater-in-the-round, with a central stage at about 65 feet. There are more than 239 fountains and 11 hydraulic ten-ton elevators that can hold water for approximately 3.7 million gallons of water which is equivalent to 5 Olympic-sized swimming pools!
The production is really world class--from waterproof costumes with Swarovski, to waterproof cosmetics, renowned contortionist, world aquatics champions, motorcycle stuntmen and a lot more in one show :)
I am not really fond of arts and shows but this one really entertained me! :) I was in awe with almost everything. My photos does not do justice at all. You must see it for yourself when you visit Macau.
