Xiangjiang isn't exactly close to Macau; they're over 60 kilometers apart.
But by helicopter, it's only a flight of a little over ten minutes!
The shortest route is actually from Hengqin in Shenzhen. Only a river separates it from Taipa on the other side.
Because Macau is so small, it might not even be as large as an airport in Shanghai on the Mainland, it's primarily divided into two main areas.
One is Macau proper, and the other is Taipa.
Another thing to note is that tourists from the Mainland can't stay in Macau for more than seven days at a time!
This was a bit of trivia the flight crew had just shared with Xu Yun on the helicopter; otherwise, he would have been completely unaware.
The Hong Kong-Macau helicopter landed on the rooftop helipad at Wan Chai Pier.
Just after he got off the helicopter, a Ritz-Carlton Hotel Rolls-Royce shuttle was already waiting for him near the pier.
