architecture

The Magnificent Seven, a collection of ornate, historic mansions lining the famed Queens Park Savanah in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad, stand out among the Caribbean's finest examples of grand and distinctive architecture. Arguably the most distinctive of the bunch: Archbishop's Palace.

In the course of exploring downtown Port-au-Prince, Haiti, one particular landmark really stands out: The National Palace... Or at least what's left of it.

Colorfully quaint, charming, and quiet, Hope Town is about as fantastically laid back a place as any I'd ever experienced.

To me, the Old World charm in and around Martinique's old Palais de Justice is simply intoxicating. The vibe at the new Palais, though... well...

It may not be Willemstad, but as picturesque Caribbean ports go, The Carenage in Grenada is supremely captivating to me.
