/kloc-I'm going to travel to Macau with my friends in October, and I want to minimize my expenses. Are tents allowed to stay overnight in the local area?

Yes, but you need to go to the black beach to be allowed. There is also a shower room available, which is a very formal camping place. But the black sand beach is on the edge of Macao, so it will be inconvenient to go to the city center.

By the way, most people who go to Macau take a detour by casino car, because it saves money. But if the place you want to go is not near the casino, there is no way. Another one. It's very cheap to cross Macao by bus. The fare in 5.6 yuan can be settled with Card 2 and 3 yuan. So you can also see if your friend has a Macao pass, which can save a lot.

There are also youth brigades there, but you need to apply in advance, because it is run by the government, and the procedures should be more formal.
