Orientation
Macau comprises three distinct parts: the peninsula , which is linked by bridge to the island of Taipa , which is in turn linked by bridge to a second island, Coloane . The peninsula of Macau, where the original old city was located and where most of the historic sights still are (as well as the city amenities), is entirely developed right up to the border with China in the north, though the islands, Coloane in particular, contain some quiet rural patches. The peninsula is not large and it's possible to get around much of it on foot, though you'll need buses for the longer stretches. Macau's Jetfoil Terminal, for boats to and from Hong Kong, is in the southeast of the peninsula. The most important road, Avenida Almeida Ribeiro , cuts across from east to west, taking in the Hotel Lisboa, one of Macau's most famous landmarks, and exits on its western end at the inner harbour, near to the docking point for ferries from Guangzhou. The western part of Almeida Ribeiro is also the budget hotel area.
