Hotel Bela Vista is a registered heritage building located upon Ave. do Comendador Ho Yin above Sai Van Lake, a late 19th-century multiple-story building of Neo-classical and traditional Portuguese architecture.  The history of the building is varied, ranging from being a retreat for British soldiers, a Portuguese refugee camp, and multiple stints of being of being a hotel with highly regarded views (we stayed there once!). Hotel Bela Vista closed its doors in 1999 after which it was renovated and converted to the official residence of the Portuguese Consulate in Macau.  Every person of a certain age living in the Hong Kong/Macau area has his or her own memories of this property.  The postcard is real-photo, unused, very old, and Grade: 1
