Vulcania, at Macau Fisherman's Wharf (10 November, 2007)
Macau Fisherman's Wharf is the first theme park to be built in Macau. It is located in the Outer Harbour area on the east side of the Macau Peninsula, a precinct earmarked for recreational purposes.
The Macau Fisherman's Wharf complex opened on 31 December, 2006, with 150 stores and restaurants. The theme deco recreates famous seaports around the world including Cape Town, Amsterdam and Venice.
Among the attractions already open or under construction at the Macau Fisherman's Wharf includes the Tang Dynasty Fortress; Vulcania, a 40-meter volcano that "erupts" on cue every evening, spewing a "River of Fire"; Aladdin's Fort, fun rides styled as a middle-eastern fortification; Aqua Romanis, a Roman-styled mall; and Roman Amphitheatre, an outdoor performance venue with a 2000-seat capacity, styled as the Colosseum.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
