Comments on: Mainland Tourists, Avoiding Hong Kong, Head to Macau Instead http://www.thenanfang.com/blog/mainland-tourists-avoiding-hong-kong-head-to-macau-instead/ News & views about Guangzhou, Shenzhen & Dongguan Sat, 11 Oct 2014 10:06:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.1 By: Commander Jameson http://www.thenanfang.com/blog/mainland-tourists-avoiding-hong-kong-head-to-macau-instead/#comment-41559 Commander Jameson Thu, 09 Oct 2014 09:45:00 +0000 http://www.thenanfang.com/blog/?p=31382#comment-41559 As a Macau resident I can tell you it is awful during Golden Week, and indeed any other time the Mainland has a mass holiday. I normally try to stay indoors. Not sure what these 'special areas' you refer to would be as normally people come here to gamble although this year was a little different thanks to the Occupy protestors. Once Hengqin Island is fully operational that will likely help accommodate some overflow.

Wouldn't it be better if Shenzhen and Zhuhai, just to name the bordering cities, had some special areas to accommodate to the needs of the people, instead of letting all the mainlanders massively flow down every weekend or so?
