HONG KONG--Macau's gambling revenue rose 21% over the previous year in June as the world's largest casino market continued to benefit from a stream of Chinese players.

Gambling revenue in the Chinese territory rose to 28.27 billion patacas ($3.54 billion), according to data from Macau's Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau released Monday.

For the first half of 2013, Macau's gambling revenue has risen 15% over the previous year.

Macau, the only place in China where casino gambling is legal, generates six times the gambling revenue of the Las Vegas Strip. Last year, Macau's gambling revenue rose 14% from 2011.
