View allAll Photos Tagged Macau
Macau is the most densely populated place on earth and when you walk through the tightly packed streets it's easy to imagine how this is true. Looming in the background here is the Grand Lisboa, which is a landmark hotel and casino. It's known for its distinctive lotus flower design and is a popular destination for both leisure and business travelers. The hotel features luxurious accommodations, high-end dining, and a world-class casino.

Excerpt from Wikipedia:
Galaxy Macau (Chinese: 澳門銀河綜合渡假城) is a casino resort located on the Cotai Strip, Macau, China. Construction on the Cotai project began in 2002. Its opening was rescheduled several times. Its developer, Galaxy Entertainment Group, announced on 10 March 2011 that the HKD 14.9 billion (US$1.9 billion) resort would officially open on 15 May 2011. The resort is designed by Gary Goddard. The resort currently consists of five different hotels, each with its own 'theme', Galaxy Macau, Banyan Tree, Hotel Okura, The Ritz-Carlton and JW Marriott.
When the Cotai project's first phase opened in 2011, the 550,000 square metres (5,900,000 sq ft) property offered around 2,200 hotel rooms comprising the Galaxy Macau hotel tower complete with casino and entertainment areas, as well as two hotel partners, the Japanese-owned Hotel Okura and the Singapore-operated Banyan Tree Hotel.
On 26 April 2012, Galaxy Macau announced that JW Marriott and Ritz-Carlton hotels would be added to the Cotai resort. Galaxy's Chief Financial Officer Robert Drake said it would start construction of the two hotels at the end of 2013 and begin operations gradually from 2016 through 2018.
According to a presentation released by Galaxy Entertainment, the total investment for Galaxy Phase 2 was estimated to be 16 billion HKD with construction completion scheduled for mid-2015. Phase 2 would consist of 450,000 square metres (4,800,000 sq ft) of new resort space, additional rooms across the five hotels and an increased casino table count of up to 500. Phase 2 was eventually opened on 27 May 2015.
