Macao's nightlife is famous for its variety, its frantic pace and constant change. For night owls this is a city that never sleeps, with plenty of bars, shops and restaurants, as well as casinos, open all night long. Visitors will have no problem if they wish to get a delicious meal or go dancing at whatever time, night or day.
A great number of bars and pubs could be found along the Avenida Sun Yat Sen close to the Kum Iam Statue and the Cultural Centre. With its picturesque location, facing the outer harbour and Pearl River, you can enjoy the music and wine while watching the boats gliding by. The music is completely cosmopolitan, with bars throbbing to the rhythms of Brazil, Portugal, England, Africa and every part of Asia. Likewise the songs will come in different languages from around the world. In some bars there are live bands performing according to client's request.
There are also some popular pubs on Taipa Island, opposite the Macao Jockey Club, with a casual ambiance which will make visitors feel like home.
For the most popular and trendy discos in town head for NAPE and Avenida do Infante D. Henrique. Here the music is modern with some local touches: international pop songs in Cantonese, Mandarin, Thai or Japanese. |
