Welcome!

Welcome to the city of Port-of-Spain! As one make their way into the city they will first encounter the sight of many modern high rise buildings from afar. However, when getting into the heart of the city you will definitely see more modern and historical aspects of Port-Of-Spain and buildings that are as old as the city!

On this blog, everyone is treated as a tourist, both locals and foreigners, as I guide you through the Capital of Trinidad and Tobago! We will explore tourism in the city and in some cases the history of certain landmarks. In addition, we will look at how tourism is promoted in the urban area for example, whether it’s through the construction of recreational facilities and upscale buildings or the preservation/ restoration of old ones. We will also delve into the reasons why certain attractions are signature to the urban town and why urban tourism is seen as this new outlook to boosting economic activity in the city and its country.
