Copper engraved plan of city and harbor of Macao. The city is shown as several blocks of buildings with the fort adjacent and located at the top of a hill. Also locates the St. Jacques et St. Philippe, the Chinese village, a Pagoda, and the military battery across the harbor. Macao was earlier an island connected to the mainland by a narrow sand bar which eventually filled in, converting Macao to a peninsula as shown here. Macao enjoys a semi-autonomous relationship with China, similar to Hong Kong.
