How to exchange Australian dollars for Macao's best tourist season

It is said that many friends are going to visit Macau recently. If you want to travel to Macau, you must know the following information about Macau's travel strategy. The following small series will introduce you, and friends who are going to visit can have a look.

Macao endorsement/entry/exit visit to Macao requires passes and visas: travel passes to and from Hong Kong and Macao and Macao endorsement. Individual tourists who want to travel to Macao must apply to the exit-entry administration department of the public security organ where they are registered with their household registration certificate. The cost of the first level is 100 yuan, and there are still 10 months before the probation period. Visa to 20 yuan once, the processing time is 7- 15 working days.

Currency introduction 1. Macao currency exchange

The official monetary unit of Macao is the Macao pataca, with denominations of 10 yuan, 20 yuan, 50 yuan, 100 yuan, 500 yuan and 1000 yuan, and coins of 1 min, 2/min, 5/min, 1 yuan, 2 yuan and 5 yuan.

In fact, it is very convenient for hotels to exchange money. Hotels and banks offer foreign currency exchange and traveler's checks, as long as the location is moderate. Both Macau International Airport and Hotel Lisboa provide 24-hour foreign currency exchange service. Local or foreign currency can freely enter and leave the country, and the number is unlimited. Credit cards can still be used in some shops in Macao.

Macao mainly uses Macao patacas, but it can't be used outside Macao. Hong Kong dollar is the second currency in circulation in Macao. In recent years, RMB has gradually been widely used in Macao, and all three currencies can be used to buy things in Macao. But from the perspective of exchange rate, RMB may be the lowest cost performance. Although the MOP will be the most cost-effective, it is difficult to grasp the amount of exchange, and the excess MOP should be exchanged for other currencies. If you don't buy too many things, it is recommended to pay in Hong Kong dollars, and the store will also exchange Hong Kong dollars. Moreover, the exchange rate difference between Macao is not very big. Everyone should pay attention to the real-time changes in the exchange rate, mainly the exchange rate at the exchange meeting that day.

2. Use UnionPay cards/credit cards in Macau

UnionPay cards can also be used in Macau. In many places, you can charge directly by swiping your card. You can check whether the store has posted the UnionPay logo, or you can directly consult the clerk. UnionPay cards can also withdraw MOP directly from ATM machines, but there will be some approximate fees according to the regulations of different card issuers. In fact, most hotels, shopping malls and restaurants in Macau can use credit cards, including some facilities in Rua do Cunha.

However, you should know that some local snack bars and private shops can't use credit cards, so it is very useful to prepare more cash.

Communication information 1. Telephone/mobile phone card

Communication in Macao is still very convenient. There are public telephones in all parts of the city. All local communication charges are 1 MOP each time, and you can talk for five minutes. No matter major hotels or public telephone booths, you can make international calls directly, or you can choose to use calling cards. There are public telephone booths in Macao Peninsula and outlying islands, which accept coins and telephone cards. If your mobile phone wants to surf the Internet, you can buy a calling card online in advance.

2. Macau public * * * free WiFi.

In front of the exhibition hall, the tourist information office of Delices Building, public libraries, some hotels and Internet cafes may access the Internet. WiFi hotspot service is provided free of charge in Macao. All areas marked with this sign cover wireless networks. It can be used at 8:00- 1:00 the next day. You can only connect for 45 minutes at a time, and you can connect again after disconnecting.

Other information 1. Socket/voltage

The voltage in Macau is 220v AC, and the outlet is generally 50 Hz. The sockets on the other side are generally square or round triangular sockets, so you should prepare the converter in advance, but you can borrow it directly from the hotel. I suggest you take it with you.

2. Tourism season

The climate in Xiamen is relatively warm, with an average temperature of 20℃. September-65438+February is autumn in Macau. I am not proud to try to study at this time, and the weather is very mild, which is very suitable for traveling. May-August is the hottest time every year, and it is still rainy season, and there may be heavy rain at any time. However, summer is the off-season in Macao. Sometimes there are typhoons in Macao. When the typhoon approaches, the Macao Bridge and Macao Highway will be temporarily closed, and flights and ships to and from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan will also be cancelled. So everyone should pay more attention to playing these days. Recycling in spring and autumn is hot during the day, and the temperature will be lower in the morning and evening. It is recommended to bring coats and other clothes. You can wear short sleeves in summer, which is light clothes. Winter is dry, cold and sunny. The coldest time is in 65438+ 10, and you can wear woolen clothes and coats.

3. Friendly reminder

The main island of Macau has narrow alleys and many one-way streets, so sometimes you may feel that taxi drivers are detouring. In fact, walking may be faster in some places.

There are stairs to climb in the tower behind the bus, but female tourists pay more attention to it, and it is easy to get naked in short skirts.

All entertainment places in Macao will provide free drinks, and everyone can drink them at will. There are many museums in Macao, but most of them are closed one day a week, most of them are closed on Mondays, and some are closed on Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Saturdays.
