About
The world's largest casino by floor area. Mock-Italian streetscape with gondolas on canals; 3,000-room resort hotel.
The Venetian Macau opened in 2007 as the largest single building in Asia and the world's largest casino by floor area. The interior recreates Venetian streetscapes with painted-sky ceilings and indoor canals where gondoliers row tourists between shopping arcades. The casino floor exceeds 51,000 m². The resort includes a 15,000-seat arena, a 1,800-seat theatre, multiple celebrity-chef restaurants, and 3,000 hotel rooms. Free to enter and walk around without gambling; busy with foot traffic at all hours.
