Unlike what happened with the British in Hong Kong centuries later, the Portuguese arrival in Macau was not the result of a war of conquest, but rather of a peaceful agreement that was mutually beneficial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Portuguese sailors helped the imperial authorities of the Ming Dynasty rid the southern coast of China of fierce pirates. In exchange, the Chinese allowed them to establish a trading post on the peninsula in return for an annual rent. Thus, the first permanent European settlement in East Asia was established.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This long coexistence gave rise to some truly unusual and amusing historical moments, such as the one related to the city\u2019s very name: When the first Portuguese sailors landed on the peninsula in the early 16th century, they did so right next to a beautiful temple dedicated to the Taoist goddess of fishermen and sailors: Mazu (or&nbsp;<em>A-Ma<\/em>).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Curious to know where they were, the Portuguese asked the local Chinese:&nbsp;<em>What's the name of this place?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The locals, thinking the foreigners were referring to the imposing religious building in front of them, replied in their dialect: \u201cA-Ma-Gau\u201d (which literally means&nbsp;<em>Ma-A Bay<\/em>). The Portuguese wrote down the name phonetically in their logbooks, and over time it became \u201cMacau\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, when the Portuguese settled in Macau, the first thing they did was occupy the high ground on the peninsula (just in case\u2026). Let's take a tour of the main points of interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Zona-portuguesa-Macao.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-attachment-id=\"23337\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/999millas.net\/en\/2016\/10\/01\/que-hacer-en-macao\/zona-portuguesa-macao\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Zona-portuguesa-Macao.png?fit=1536%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1536,1024\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Zona portuguesa Macao\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Zona-portuguesa-Macao.png?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Zona-portuguesa-Macao.png?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Zona-portuguesa-Macao.png?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Zona-portuguesa-Macao.png?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Zona-portuguesa-Macao.png?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Zona-portuguesa-Macao.png?resize=18%2C12&amp;ssl=1 18w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/999millas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Zona-portuguesa-Macao.png?w=1536&amp;ssl=1 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of them is Gu\u00eda Hill, where they built a lighthouse and a small chapel, just west of the ferry terminal.
