A Unforgettable Experience
The high speed "cloud ride"
glass-fronted elevator arrives at the outdoor
observation deck, 233 meters above the ground,
in minutes, where a spine-tingling walk
along transparent glass flooring puts the
whole of Macau literally beneath your feet.
From the decks or the restaurants, the Tower
offers majestic bird's eye views of the
Pearl River Delta panorama.
On the ground level, visitors
can take a ride on the beautiful 13-meter
handcrafted carousel, stroll the boardwalk
along the scenic old Macau waterfront, and
see the historic caravel, a scale replica
of a pirate ship, complete with cannon and
treasure.
Macau Tower, the 10th highest
freestanding tower in the world and the
8th tallest in Asia and inaugurated on 19th
December 2001.
