A Day in Kingston

Sometimes it’s not about being in a place that’s considered “paradise” by a lot of people in the known world. Sometimes it’s about getting lost in a culture and way of life that’s all it’s own. Sometimes, it’s about being in Kingston.

There you can visit places like St. Mary’s Catholic Cathedral which is fashioned entirely out of vulcanic bricks and is a mixture of romantic, moorish, and georgian styles.

Or get a guided tour of the oldest Botantical Gardens in the Americas. Complete with an aviary that houses the nation’s national bird, the St. Vincent parrot (Amazona Guildingii).

Go just west of Kingston, and witness Fort Charlotte which stands 600 ft about the bay, and discover the history of the Black Caribs.

Then venture to the *Kingston Market *where fresh fruit and vegetables are on display, along with the best of the day’s catch.
