Macau Casinos: The Monte Carlo of the Orient
Overview
Macau, often referred to as the "Monte Carlo of the Orient," has been a gambling hotspot since 1850 when the activity was first legalized under Portuguese rule. Today, it stands as a bustling hub for both gambling and tourism, attracting visitors from Hong Kong and mainland China. These industries form the backbone of Macau's economy.
Casino Landscape
Macau is home to numerous casinos, all stringently regulated by the government and most operating 24/7. Among the popular games are blackjack, roulette, boule, sic bo, Fan-Tan, keno, and the ever-favored baccarat.
