Coloane

Coloane

Coloane is one of the two main islands of Macau, located directly south of Macau's other main island, Taipa, and east of Hengqin Island of Zhuhai in Guangdong province, People's Republic of China. Coloane was known in Cantonese as Gau Ou Saan (literally "Nine-inlet Mountain", transcribed in Portuguese as Ká-Hó) and Yim Zou Waan (literally "Salt-stove Bay"). The Portuguese name "Coloane" is derived from the Cantonese pronunciation of Gwo Lou Waan (literally "Passing-road Ring").
