This relaxing garden with dappled meandering paths is dedicated to the one-eyed poet LuÃs de Camões (1524–80), who is said to have written part of his epic Os LusÃadas in Macau, though there is little evidence that he ever reached the city. You'll see a bronze bust (c 1886) of the man here. The wooded garden attracts a fair number of chess players, bird owners and Chinese shuttlecock kickers. The Sr Wong Ieng Kuan Library is also here.
