O Casino flutuante Macau Palace foi um ícone da indústria do jogo de Macau durante várias décadas (encerrou na primeira década do século 21). Tinha três pisos e, para além do jogo, um excelente restaurante de gastronomia chinesa onde se destacava o dim sum.
Para este post selecionei algumas referências ao espaço escritas em publicações sobre turismo.
