Mainland visitors also made the largest contribution to Macao's tourism industry from January to October in 2014, accounting for 67.4 percent of tourists, followed by those from Hong Kong at 20.5 percent and Taiwan at 3.1 percent.

Macao is now listed among the Top 10 tourism regions in Lonely Planet.
