For today's Geo Quiz, we're headed to southern China. That's where the world's biggest casino opened its doors today.
It's called "The Venetian" -- and it is HUGE. The developer claim it's the second-largest building in the world. And as the name implies -- it's modeled on the Italian city of Venice. Reporter Frederik Balfour was there for the over-the-top gala opening.
"There are 51 gondolas, they have an indoor and an outdoor canal...There is a St. Mark's square replica, there is a medieval clock tower...There's a replica of the Rialto bridge which is probably the most famous bridge in Venice.â€

It's in one of China's "Special Administrative Regions" -- the one that was once a Portuguese colony.
Can you name the place?
No worries if you can't -- we're back with the answer in just a few minutes.
