海角遊魂彎 Donna Maria Bend

接著車手就會遊一遊海角遊魂彎,此彎以澳門的七大峰之一命名,該峰的名字則源自十九世紀葡萄牙其中一個女皇Dona Maria。她的原名是Maria da Gloria,於1819年在巴西里約熱內盧出世,是巴西國王兼葡萄牙第四任國王D. Pedro I的女兒。她的母親是奧地利公主D. Lepoldina。Maria da Gloria於1834年登基成為葡萄牙女王,被尊為Dona Maria II。

A burst of speed takes competitors through Donna Maria Bend, name after another of Macau’s seven hills which itself was named for one of Portugal’s 19th Century Queens. Donna Maria’s correct name is in fact “Maria da Gloria”. She was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1819, and was the daughter of the King of Brazil and the IV King of Portugal, D. Pedro I. Her mother was the archduchess D. Lepoldina of Austria. She was crowned Queen of Portugal in 1834, and went by the name Donna Mario II.
