The Camões Garden was constructed in the mid-18th century. It was originally the property of the Portuguese adviser Manuel Pereira and was later leased to the branch office of the Britain East India Company in Macao.After the death of the merchant, his residence was donated to the government, commemorating the great Portuguese poet Luis de Camoes, which is where the name of the garden comes from.
