The Vibe

Mega-resort spectacle—gaming, shopping, entertainment non-stop. The atmosphere is climate-controlled opulence. The pace is 24/7 casino energy. The crowd is gamblers from mainland China, luxury shoppers, and entertainment seekers.

Description

Asia's Las Vegas—a reclaimed land strip connecting Taipa and Coloane islands packed with mega-resorts. The Venetian Macao (2007) features 3,000 suites and indoor canals. The Parisian Macao recreates the Eiffel Tower at half-scale. Wynn Palace features an 8-acre performance lake. Studio City offers a figure-8 Ferris wheel through its towers. This is entertainment on a scale that dwarfs Las Vegas.
