I normally try to stay indoors.
Not sure what these ‘special areas’ you refer to would be as normally people come here to gamble although this year was a little different thanks to the Occupy protestors. Once Hengqin Island is fully operational that will likely help accommodate some overflow.

Wouldn’t it be better if Shenzhen and Zhuhai, just to name the bordering cities, had some special areas to accommodate to the needs of the people, instead of letting all the mainlanders massively flow down every weekend or so?
