What is Macau a first-tier city?

Macau cannot be measured by several first-tier cities, as they were not included in the city selection.

Macau is located on the coast of the South China Sea, on the west bank of the Pearl River Estuary in Guangdong Province. It is 40 nautical miles away from Hong Kong and consists of three parts: the Macau Peninsula, Taipa Island and Coloane Island. Macau is a small country with the highest population density in the world. The superior geographical location, pleasant subtropical climate, developed service facilities and tourism have made Macao famous all over the world.

Due to Macao’s special geographical location, the only remaining industry in agriculture is horticulture and flower cultivation. The main tree species in the natural wild forest are camphor and mangrove. The wild animals include snakes, reptiles and butterflies, among which the butterfly species are the most common.

Macao has a mild climate throughout the year, with an average temperature of around 20°C and little temperature variation throughout the year.
