Hey there! Have you heard about the big celebration in Macao? 🎉 On Thursday evening, President Xi Jinping attended a special gala at the East Asian Games Dome to mark the 25th anniversary of Macao’s return to China!
So, what’s Macao? 🏙️ Macao is a small but exciting place on the southern coast of China. It’s famous for its unique mix of Chinese and Portuguese cultures, cool architecture, and delicious food! 🍜
A bit of history: 📖 25 years ago, in 1999, Macao was handed back to China from Portugal. Since then, it’s been a Special Administrative Region, which means it has its own systems but is still part of China. Pretty interesting, right?
The gala was full of amazing performances, music, and happy people celebrating this special day. It’s a big milestone for Macao and China! 🎊
Why it matters: 🌟 Events like this show how people come together to celebrate history and look forward to the future. What kind of events do you have in your city to celebrate important days? Let us know! 😊
