Macau Macau GEOGRAPHY Location, Size, Border, and Coastline: Topography: Macau has generally flat terrain resulting from extensive land reclamation, but numerous steep hills mark the original natural land mass. The modern high-rise skyline of Macau obscures much of the hilly landscape. Macau's highest point is at Coloane Alto (174 meters above sea level). The Macau skyline both defines and obscures its topography. Courtesy Robert L. Worden Climate: Natural Resources: Negligible. In the past, large amounts of granite were extracted from Macau's hills for use as building material. Land Use: No arable land, pastures, forest, or woodland. Because of this deficiency, Macau's people traditionally have looked to the sea for their livelihood. Environmental Factors: Dense urban environment.
