# Macau

A special administrative region of the People's Republic of China on the west bank of the Pearl River Delta; its official languages are Chinese and Portuguese.

**Macau** is a special administrative region of the People's Republic of China[^gcs]. China resumed the exercise of sovereignty over Macau on 20 December 1999, when the Macao Special Administrative Region was established[^basic-law].

It lies on the west bank of the Pearl River Delta next to Guangdong, 60 km from Hong Kong and 145 km from Guangzhou[^gcs], and consists of the Macau Peninsula, Taipa and Coloane, joined by the Cotai reclamation[^gcs]. Its population was 688,300 at the end of 2024; the official languages are Chinese and Portuguese[^gcs].

Seventeen Macau restaurants are listed in the [Black Pearl Restaurant Guide 2025](/en/works/black-pearl-guide-2025.html)[^black-pearl-2025].
