This photo was taken in December 2024, at the Cotai area of Taipa, Macau. Galaxy Entertainment Group spans over 2 million square meters with eight world-class hotels and around 5,000 luxury rooms. Every day, many workers carry out physical labor outdoors, maintaining the facilities. These workers are often overlooked, as tourists focus on the gambling and luxury shopping venues inside the Galaxy. Many of these workers are middle-aged or elderly, quietly supporting the bustling hub.
