MACAU 澳门 ~ Part II

After our trip to the Senado Square and the Ruins of St. Paul's, we proceed to The Venetian Macao-Resort-Hotel which is located at the Cotai Strip 路氹. We took the free shuttle bus service by The Venetian which run to the ferry wharf and the border gate frequently from early until late.
