  • Overnight In China's 5-Star Fake Paris Hotel - The Parisian Hotel Macau
    My previous video from Xinjiang, China: • I Visited China's Most...
    Macau, China: A city that is also known as the Las Vegas of Asia. The gambling capital of Asia, very popular for Chinese tourists. Macau is a special administrative region of China, same as Hong Kong as well. This is my 2nd time here in Macau and I wanted to stay in a very special hotel this time: The Parisian hotel Macau. A hotel that makes you feel like you're in Paris, France. They even have a fake Eiffel tower in front of the hotel, which looks pretty real. Let's check into this hotel, which is probably the most luxurious hotel I ever stayed at and see what the whole experience is like. I will also show you around the city of Macau and we'll meet my friends from the @JetLagWarriors.
    This is the hotel where I stayed:

    The area you are in now is an economic corridor in China, Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, which is equivalent to California in the United States. There are three first-tier cities here, namely Hongkong, Shenzhen and Guangzhou. The new line has Dongguan, the second line has Huizhou with a population of nearly 70 million.

      Unlike the British who took Hong Kong as a spoil of the Opium War, Macau was leased from China in 1557 for payment of an annual rent. The Portuguese tried to change the leasehold status to one of Portuguese territory without success until 1887 when the Chinese agreed to recognise it as Portuguese. It was handed over to China in 1999.

Very impressed with the excellent presentation and you're so positive and friendly with local people etc and trying new things. We were in Macao last December and were amazed by the place and visited that hotel, just for a coffee, which was good. I didn't realise the price for a room was quite as reasonable, as we'd visited an hotel in Sanya (just for coffee) which was over 2000 yuan per night. Guess this was how Marco Polo reacted when he went to China, in 13th Century.

    • @ymhktravel
      @ymhktravel 2 місяці тому

      When you sleep on a soft mattress, your body may sink too deeply into the surface, causing your spine to curve unnaturally. This can lead to back pain, muscle stiffness, and joint discomfort. But if you are already suffering from back pain, then a soft mattress do provide more relief for these people. People who sleep on their stomach and back tends to prefer firm bed and those who sleep on their sides, soft bed.

    There's nothing "fake" about the Parisian Hotel in the same way there isn't anything fake about the Brandenburg Gate in your native Germany, even though it's a copy the Propylaea of the Acropolis in Athens, Greece. The hotel is owned by Las Vegas Sands (which has a similar property in Vegas); replicating famous monuments is not unique to China, yet the term "fake," driven by racist stereotypes, is only associated with China in the westerner's mindset.

    My paternal grandmother was born in Macau and married my grandfather in Guangzhou. I have relatives in Macau, HK, Guangzhou, Shanghai and different cities of USA. I’ve been to Macau in 2001 right after the handover from Portugal. My paternal uncle (my father’s cousin) was a senator in the 1999 handover ceremony in Macau. If you watch the handover ceremony in 1999 and the inauguration ceremony, you can see a tall and slim male with gray hair. That is my paternal uncle. When we were in Macau visiting my paternal relatives, there weren’t as many casinos. Now they added more casinos. The food is still Cantonese cuisine but with some Portuguese twist, such as the Portuguese egg tart (a little sweeter than the Cantonese egg tart version).
