You can work off the feast by going on a shopping spree. The Venetian Macao at Cotai Strip Resorts Macao is an integrated resort that makes guests feel they're in picturesque Venice, due to its architecture style and arched bridges over an indoor river.

The banks are lined with retail stores with designer and high street brands, and duty-free shops. Don't be deceived by the blue sky and white clouds above you - it's actually the ceiling and it changes color over time.
When you are tired of shopping, you can take a gondola along the river and listen to the uniformed Italian boatman or boatwoman sing Italian songs.If Paris is more your style, you don't have long to wait - The Parisian Macao at Cotai Strip Resorts Macao under construction is expected to open at the end of 2015 or early 2016.
With a replica Eiffel Tower in front of its gate, the Paris-themed resort will feature about 3,000 rooms, a retail mall, diverse food and beverage options and entertainment.
"To make sure that the hotel stays thematically in the French style, we went to France to look at the trends, such as what people are buying and how they dress," Tracy says.
"As the hospitality industry continues to grow and the product offering improves, the visibility of Macao as an international destination will be greater and it's already happening."
Visitors can celebrate Children's Day by watching Transformers 30th Anniversary Expo at The Venetian Macao, with more than 1,000 Transformers models from different years.
The expo starts on June 1 and will last until October. You will see Optimus Prime in the form of a three-dimensional hologram, and feel as if the Transformer is standing in front of you.
