Luís de Camões Garden and Grotto

One of the largest gardens in Macau, the land used to be owned by the British East India Company and was bought over by a Portuguese merchant who then willed it to the Macau government to be turned into a public garden when he died. The garden was dedicated to master Lusitan poet Luís de Camões. The gardens are popular with tai chi and aerobics groups and also people who bring their birds in cages to be shown off. The main attraction of the park is the Camões Grotto, where the one-eyed poet once lived with his Chinese bride in the late 16th century. Inside, there's a bronze bust of him.
