Macau
China
Macau compresses four centuries of Portuguese Asia into one walkable peninsula — the Ruins of St. Paul's, tiled squares and coastal forts on the UNESCO list, while the Cotai strip builds Venice-scale casino resorts on reclaimed land behind them. Coloane's village calm and Lord Stow's egg tarts finish the picture.
