    Backpacking in summer is a great way to experience new and exciting places, especially if you are on a budget. For less money than what you would pay for an all-inclusive holiday, for example, you get to see more places, and (some say) even have a more authentic view of a foreign destination.

    Backpacking is also more adventurous, and there’s a sense of freedom in being able to go where you want, whenever you want, and getting the most out of a holiday. So if you’re set on a backpacking trip, there are lots of amazing places to see, especially in Asia, which has become a backpacker’s paradise in the past few years. So here are some of the most popular backpacking hotspots in Asia.

    Macau city center

    Until 1999, Macau was a an overseas territory belonging to Portugal, but although it has changed hands, not much has changed about this huge city, and it is just as fun to visit as ever. Contrary to popular opinion, Las Vegas is not the best gambling destination in the world, Macau is.

    But apart form that, Macau is a city with a long (and not always happy) history – it was the last European colony in Asia, and the old town makes you feel like you’re taking a walk through some European small town. There are lots of things to see both in the city and the islands of Taipa and Coloane, so here are the most exciting tourist attractions in Macau.

  • The backpacker’s guide to Macau

    Although from an administrative point of view Macau belong to China, when you travel to this city you can’t help but feel like you’re in the heart of Europe instead of Asia. Macau is one of the oldest European colonies in the Orient, and the colonial cultural heritage is more obvious in Macau than in other places.

    A backpacker will have the time of their life when exploring this interesting pick and mix of Portuguese and Chinese elements. A few days in Macau will please even the most persnickety of backpackers: good food, nice atmosphere, and lots of affordable (if sometimes a bit seedy) accommodation options.
