This is a very large chart of Macau and its surroundings, the Green Island and Taipa and part of Lapa or Priest's Island, Macarira or D. João and Coloane. An extensive number of soundings is given, covering practically the whole area of the map, the same is true to inset 3. The map is not only detailed on the water area but also inland, be it by the relief or by the identification of places and buildings. On the Macau Peninsula the architecture appear geometrically stylized, typical of a plan, but all forts are identified as are the most important buildings on the legend on the right bottom corner of the map. The legends on the Lapa Island are mostly about relief and tides.
