Bad Photos: Macau

Macau is Asia's Vegas.

It is also the only region in China besides Hong Kong that is a "Special Administrative Region." This means that although it is controlled ultimately by the PRC government in Beijing, it is allowed the autonomy to retain its previous government system. So, most of China's laws and economic policies don't apply here.

Here are some photos:

The sacred ruins of St. Paul's Church.


This guy was awesome

This temple was only a few feet away from St. Paul's. I think the Catholics won the "Mine's bigger than yours" argument here.
From inside the ruins of St. Paul's comes the view of the Grand Lisboa, Macau's most famous casino.

Chinese New Year's decorations at Senado Square




Roasted chestnuts. 



My goofy mug in front of the Wynn.


If you ever wondered what a squatter looks like... this was in a restaurant in Macau. Don't worry, I didn't have to get to know it that well.
