The Macao Peninsula Plan, 1889, is a map showing the Macao Peninsula, located on the southern coast of China. The map was created by Antonio Heitor, a civil engineer for the Portuguese government of Macau. The map shows the peninsula at a scale of 1:5000, and includes details such as streets, buildings, harbors and vegetation.

The map shows that the Macau peninsula was a relatively small city in 1889. The city was dominated by the port, which was the center of economic activity in the city. The city was also densely populated, with many homes and commercial buildings.

The map also shows some of the most important buildings in the city, such as the Leal Senado, the Cathedral of Nossa Senhora da Guia and the Forte do Monte. The Leal Senado was Macau's government building, and the Sé Catedral de Nossa Senhora da Guia was the city's cathedral. Forte do Monte was a fortress that protected the city from attacks.

The Plan of the Peninsula of Macau, 1889, is an important historical document that provides an overview of the city in an important time period. The map shows the city at a time of growth and change, as Macau became an important commercial and cultural center in the region.
