Rapidly emerging as one of the most impressive buildings in the world, the Venetian Macau was modelled after the similar building in Las Vegas and belongs to one of the richest men in the world, Sheldon Adelson. The casino was built on the Cotai strip in Macau, being the biggest casino in the world and the third largest building worldwide.

Construction on the other parts of the complex is rapidly progressing, the site soon becoming one of the largest casino strips in the world and the envy of Las Vegas.

• Site 1 = The Venetian Macao
• Site 2 = Four Seasons Macau
• Site 3 = Far East Consortium
• Site 4 = City of Dreams (see Melco-PBL below)
• Site 5 = Shangri-La and Traders
• Site 6 = Sheraton and St. Regis
• Site 7 = Hilton and Conrad
• Site 8 = Fairmont and Raffles

And if you haven’t yet grasped the concept of how big the Venetian Macau really is, know that you could fit 90 Boeing 747 jumbo jets into it. It’s easy to get lost, since the casino has 3,000 suites, 1,200,000 square feet (111,000 m²) of convention space, 1,600,000 square feet (149,000 m²) of retail, 550,000 square feet (51,000 m²) of casino space. In this casino space, gamblers will find 3,400 slot machines and 800 gambling tables and a 15,000 seat arena for entertainment/sports events.
