A well- heeled traveller, actor Neha Dhupia was bowled over by the charm of Macau in Hong Kong. Back from a trip in the erstwhile Portuguese colony, she shares her travel experiences with CS:
Not so lucky
Macau is a gambler's paradise. I am not much of gambler but it's fun to try your hand at gambling. And clearly I was not lucky. I lost, but thankfully it wasn't such a big amount. The place also has grand resorts that offer every possible luxury you can imagine.
Show time
One of the highlights of the place are the spectacular shows for tourists. I went for 'The House of Dancing Water', a spectacular extravaganza, the world's largest water-based show created by Franco Dragone. I have seen some of the most beautiful shows in the world but this one takes the cake.u00a0
Old world charm
Walking down the streets of Macau is like wandering in some Portuguese town.You must try out the very famous Portuguese Egg Tarts. They are simplymouth-watering. It is basically a pastry crust that is filled with egg custard,which is then baked and served. The place is also good to pick up small souvenirs and knick knacks to take back home for your family and friends.
High on Hong Kong
I love going to Hong Kong. Every time I revisit the place, I find something new to experience. This time the idea was just to relax and rejuvenate. And I managed to do just that.
