Macau (traditional Chinese: 澳門; simplified Chinese: 澳门; Jyutping: ou3 mun4), also known as Macao (pronounced /məˈkaʊ/) is one of the two special administrative regions of the People's Republic of China, the other being Hong Kong. Macau lies on the western side of the Pearl River Delta, bordering Guangdong province to the north and facing the South China Sea in the east and south. The territory features industries such as textiles and toys, as well as a notable tourist and gambling sector. It has the highest life expectancy in the world (2008). Macau was a Portuguese colony and both the first and last European colony in China. Portuguese traders first settled in Macau in the 16th century and subsequently administered the region until the handover on 20 December 1999. The Sino-Portuguese Joint Declaration and the Basic Law of Macau stipulate that Macau operates with a high degree of autonomy until at least 2049, fifty years after the transfer. Under the policy of "one country, two systems", the Central People's Government is responsible for the territory's defence and foreign affairs, while Macau maintains its own legal system, police force, monetary system, customs policy, immigration policy, and delegates to international organisations and events.

HK: HK dollar and RMB can be used for payment, but HK dollar is more convenient. Macau: HK dollar can be used in Macau for shopping or tips. Suggest you not translate any local currency any more. Mainland China: RMB is the only cash currency that you can use for shopping or dinner. But you can exchange the USD and HKD in any banks. So does in HKor Macau. For credit card, in Beijing Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou, most of the shops and hotel can be paid by Visa, master and China Union Pay, but some may not be paid as they use link to domestic China Union Pay system. The ATM with the label of Visa and Master can be withdrawn cash. We are experienced in China tax, accounting and auditing service.

But as your time is short, based yourself only in Macau Peninsula if you want to visit many places. If you just want to visit some places, than the whole Macau is worth the go as its small in size and easy to get around with. Go to places like NAPE and area around Senando Square for attractions, shopping and dining all round.
