Between the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century, English merchants and botanists invited by him visited the Luís de Camões Garden to collect plants and take them to be planted in the Royal Botanical Gardens of Kew. in London, England. Since then, some of the species introduced in Macao with these exchanges began to grow naturally, with the Luís de Camões Garden becoming almost a botanical garden that records the history of exchanges between China and the West. Among the plants in the Garden of Luís de Camões, we can find the exotic red acacia (Delonix regia), a species of tree native to Madagascar and of which it can be considered the most representative. The place where the Jardim de Luís de Camões is located was formerly known as Colina da Fénix, as the red acacias placed there had leaves whose appearance resembled the feathers of a phoenix, hence the name "phoenix tree" in Chinese. That's how this designation came about, Macau being most likely the first place where the red acacia began to be part of the Chinese landscape.

According. to legend, the renowned Portuguese poet Luís de Camões (1524-1580) used to write in this area during his stay in Macao in the mid-16th century. Later Lourenço Marques. son-in-law of the wealthy Portuguese merchant Manuel Pereira, ordered a bronze bust of Camões and placed it in this stone niche to commemorate him. From archival photos, it can be seen that the stone niche used to have a round fence in front and a small Chinese pavilion structure on top. Verses from Camões's famous epic Os Lusladas are carved on the granite base of the bust-statue to commemorate this areat Portuquese poet.

White Dove Garden is a hidden oasis nestled within the bustling city, seemingly a secret haven immersed in the embrace of nature. As you step into the park, the fresh air and lush greenery instantly bring a sense of tranquility. The serene lake within the park, surrounded by verdant trees, creates a picturesque scene, occasionally graced by the gentle flight of a few white doves, as if they were gifts from nature. This place, far removed from the urban clamor, becomes the perfect spot for people to slow down and soothe their souls. In this tranquil haven, you can listen to the wind, watch the sunset, and experience a rare sense of peace. White Dove Garden is not only a great place for relaxation but also a sanctuary for the heart.

For 450 years, the Macao Historic District, where Eastern and Western cultures have coexisted, has well-preserved not only relics such as squares, buildings, walls, and fortresses centered around religious facilities, but also houses and alleys that reflect the traces of its citizens. Among them, in Camões Park, there is a statue of Father Kim Dae-gun. It was a place with many frogs and giant snails (perhaps because of the rain?), and I visited because there was a statue of Father Kim Dae-gun, thinking I should take a quick look since it's right next to a cathedral, but the statue was at the very end of the park, so I ended up walking all the way around.. Highly recommended for Catholics!

The 'Historic Centre of Macau' stretches from the Mount Fortress in the east to the Inner Harbour Ferry Terminal in the west, from the A-Ma Temple in the south to the Camoes Garden in the north. It encompasses over 20 historical buildings including the A-Ma Temple, the Maritime Administration Building, St. Dominic's Church, the Ruins of St. Paul's, and the Monte Fort, as well as seven closely connected public squares. The 'Historic Centre of Macau' preserves the essence of over four hundred years of cultural exchange between East and West. It is the oldest, largest, and most well-preserved and concentrated historic district in China, where Western-style buildings dominate, complemented by Chinese-style architecture. The glittering luxury hotels are just a stone's throw away from the quaint, nostalgic streets and alleys. The bright colors of Western buildings paired with the classical grandeur of Chinese architecture do not clash, creating a harmonious blend. Macau offers an all-encompassing culinary culture, a relaxed and leisurely lifestyle, a shopping environment with a wide variety of goods and few people, and a deep historical heritage. Macau possesses an irreplaceable urban charm.

"White Dove Nest Park", also known as Jardim de Camões, is located in front of the White Dove Nest in Macau. It was built in the mid-18th century and is a historic park in Macau. The park was originally a private residence of a Portuguese wealthy merchant who loved raising doves, hence the name "White Dove Nest". It is also said that the Portuguese poet Camões once wrote here, and there is a bronze statue of him in the park, so it is also called Jardim de Camões. Built in 1885, the civic park features stacked rocks, towering ancient trees, a serene environment, and exotic charm, making it a place for citizens to relax, exercise, and entertain.
