The Cotai masterplan is a visually rich and dynamic public realm that uses planting, topography, water, lighting and hard landscape elements to create dynamic visual and spatial experiences for visitors to enjoy as a world class tourism and hotel destination.
The Cotai landscape promenade celebrates a multi-cultural identity which unifies the public areas of the Masterplan. The Masterplan also improves on the idea of the original Las Vegas Strip, by making it more interesting and walkable, and by combining traditional Vegas eclecticism with references which are specific to the culture and climate of Macau.
