Description
This photo album exhibits photographies from a trip I took in MACAU ten years ago (2012), and on which I related at large in my travelog “EXTENSICA. FOTOJURNAL INSTANTANEU DIN CANTON” (Extenics. Instant photojournal in Canton), Romania, 2012 (in Romanian). In addition to images, this album contains short notations on the history of Macau or its current real-life. Macau (officially the Macao Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China) is a city by the South China Sea, in the western Pearl River Delta, nowadays the most densely populated region in the world. The first written record of the name "Macau", as "Ya/A Ma Gang“, dates back from 1555. The earliest Portuguese spelling for the place was AMAQUÃO, and many variations were used until Macau became standardized by the new Portuguese orthography.
