Counting down to 1999...

Recently, I visisted Macau, the Portuguese colony located about 60km east of Hong Kong, and set to return to China in 1999. To be precise, Macau is officially a "Chinese territory under Portuguese administration." Below, are some pictures of the very European-looking (except for the Chinese writing) historic part of Macau. The last picture is the building for the current legislature.
