The Macau Tower aka Macau Tower Convention & Entertainment Centre measures is 338 metres high.  Its observation deck features panoramic views, restaurants, theaters, shopping malls and the Skywalk X, a thrilling walking tour around the outer rim. 

It offers the best view of Macau and in recent years has been used for a variety of adventurous activities. The Macau Tower's tethered "skyjump" and Bungee jump from the tower's outer rim, is the highest commercial skyjump in the world (233 metres), and the second highest commercial decelerator descent facility in the world, after Vegas' Stratosphere skyjump at 252 metres. 

On a visit to Auckland, New Zealand, Hong Kong casino billionaire Stanley Ho Hung-Sun was so impressed by the Sky Tower in Auckland that he commissioned a similar one to be built in Macau. The tower was designed by New Zealand engineering firm Moller Architects. Construction work of the tower started in 1998, and the tower was officially opened on December 19, 2001.
