MACAU

Macau is situated about one hour by ferry from Hong Kong and is split into three main landmasses connected by bridges: Macau Peninsula, Taipa Island, and Coloane Island. Given the murky sandy water and land reclamation around all three, it's only a matter of time before Coloane and Taipa become officially one. In fact, Taipa Island itself was once two individual islands - an indication of just how powerful siltation can be. The night scene at the top of this page shows the connecting 'old' bridge between Taipa and the Peninsula (there's a new bridge also), from the Taipa side. It has an interesting "hump" in the middle - which is both unusual and, particularly at night, attractive to the skyline.
The newest addition to the Macau coastline is the airport, of which the runway is on reclaimed land hanging off the side of Taipa Island. It's unlikely you will enter Macau by plane, however, since most visitors come by boat from Hong Kong or elsewhere.
