Macau is a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of China. It is a city with a long and colorful history. Today Macau's rich heritage is celebrated by UNESCO with its inscription as a World Heritage Site. While it is true that many visitors come to Macau to gamble in its many casinos, there is a lot to this small enclave than gambling, and at Macau, I want to share with you everything that is wonderful about this former Portuguese colony. Along the way, I will also provide you practical so that you have all you need to plan a smooth and enjoyable visit there.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
