Hong Kong-Macau Adventure: City of Dreams Hotel

This is the twenty-fifth part of our 4-days-3-nights Hong Kong-Macau Adventure.

From the Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal, there is an area in the front which is the parking lot of the shuttle/bus of different hotels in Macau. All of these are entirely free. And the best part is that even if you’re not staying in their hotel, it’s ok to ride the bus. So we tried the shuttle of City of Dreams to go there which is really nice because we did not have to spend a cent for it.

City of Dreams is a casino hotel which is located in the Cotai reclamation area in Macau. It is located directly opposite the Venetian Macau Hotel which is another popular hotel in Cotai, Macau. It has four towers, over 200 shopping facilities, and 550 gaming tables. (Wikipedia)

The popular entertainment at the City of Dreams is the House of Dancing Water. It is an action packed and unique water based show which features synchronized swimming and lots and lots of effects. We really wanted to watch this because youtube videos of the show are amazing, unfortunately, it costs a whopping 580hkd to 1,480hkd depending on the seats you would be reserving. So, yup, it is a pass for us, maybe next time.

Another show featured is the Dragon Treasure Show which costs 30MOP so we also did not watch it. We were also not able to explore the whole of City of Dreams because it was huge.

After that, we headed on to The Venetian Hotel which is just opposite the City of Dreams.
