The Cotai Strip (Cotai Strip) is one of the most dazzling areas in Macau, located on Coloane Strip in Macau. The concept of this entire area originates from the Las Vegas Strip in Las Vegas, combining elements such as hotels, leisure, performances, and entertainment. It has become an important emerging entertainment and tourism hub in Macau in recent years. The Cotai Strip includes well-known resorts such as The Venetian Macao, Studio City, and Galaxy Macau. The most prominent among them is the Grand Hyatt Macau (formerly Crown Macau), Macau’s first five-star hotel built to six-star standards. Opened in 2007, it was the tallest building on Coloane at the time.
