This parish was one of five in the former Municipality of Macau, one of Macau's two municipalities that were abolished on 31 December 2001 by Law No. 17/2001, following the 1999 transfer of sovereignty over Macau from Portugal to China. While their administrative functions have since been removed, these parishes are still retained nominally.

One-third of its region is covered by Guia Hill (Portuguese: Colina da Guia, Chinese: 松山 or 東望洋山). 3% of factories in Macau are located in the district.
