The city of dreams was close to my accommodation (by taxi). It was my first time to see a water show, and it was a very satisfying show for the whole family. There were various performances, such as underwater shows, martial arts, motorcycle diving, etc. Our seats were in the first row, so we were provided with raincoats. It was the best fun I had during my trip to Macau.

The service, environment and food quality of the Lotus Palace at Parisian are very good. The pork bone corn 🌽 and the medicinal chicken soup base are very delicious. I will go again 🤗

The lunch dishes are rich in variety and taste very good. There are many choices of fresh juice drinks, delicious salmon sashimi and nigiri sushi, and many desserts. It costs just over 1,000 yuan to eat for 3 hours, which is a great value for money.

There are many choices of lunch dishes, the only drawback is that there are few beverage choices. The roast pork and fried chicken are delicious, and there are Indian biscuits. Although it is only limited to 1.5 hours, the unbeatable view + ticket (to see the night view) is very cost-effective, and I will buy it next time.

Lunch buffet is cheap, with many hot food choices. The Peking duck is popular among many people, and you have to queue up to get it. The Portuguese tart dessert is excellent and crispy, and there are many other cakes to choose from. The sushi/sashimi selection is small, but reasonable. The place is full on weekdays.
