The map depicts a stylized built-up area typical of a plan but the city walls and fortifications in considerable detail which might imply a military use to the map. It identifies the Border Gate with an explanation of its purpose; the Green Island used by the Jesuits; the Chinese village Wangxia -here unnamed-; the A-Ma Temple -named only as 'Pagode Chinoise'. However the most detail is given to military information such as where the vessels are built in Wanzai -Isle des pretres-; the location of the harbours; the major fortification of the Monte -here named N.D. de la Montaigne-; the Barra fortress -named S.t Jacques et S.t Philippe-; the bastion of Nossa Senhora do Bom Parto -N.D.e de Bomparto- and even a shore battery under the Guia fort -Nossa Senhora da Guia- where a lighthouse was built some years later.
