One of the territories involved in the disputes between the great powers over the control of the colonies was Trinidad & Tobago, the most southern island in the Antilles. Trinidad & Tobago is a paradise of unspoiled beach and mountain landscapes, natural reserves, festive culture and exotic gastronomy, while being one of the most unknown countries in the Caribbean, where mass tourism has not yet settled. This will allow you to discover an unsweetened country. In this post we bring you a handful of tips so that you make the most of your trip to Trinidad & Tobago. Places to visit in Trinidad & Tobago ============================= Only 11 kilometres away from the Venezuelan coastlines, this country comprises two islands. Trinidad, with a surface of 4,748 km2, is the main and biggest island in the archipelago, and also where the capital, Port of Spain, is located. Then we have Tobago, a small island located northeast of Trinidad with a surface of 300 km2. These are some of its biggest tourist attractions: Maracas Bay, the most popular beach and one of the most beautiful in Port of Spain, although it is 25 minutes away from the city by car. The lush vegetation surrounding it and its crystalline oceanic waters are its strongest suits, without a doubt. In Tobago, don’t miss Store Bay and Pigeon Point. The Temple in the Sea is peculiar piece of architecture built by a Hindu that defied the colonial ban of building non-Christian temples on dry land. Taking into account that 40% of the population comes from India, it is not hard to find Hindu temples. In Port of Spain you can also visit the Dattatreya Temple and the Paschimkashi Hindu Mandir. The Royal Botanical Gardens should be a must-see on your list, a very well-kept urban garden with vegetation and tropical animals. It is not far from the Queen’s Park Savannah and the Emperor Valley Zoo, another two essentials in your trip. If you are interested in going over the natural beauty of the islands, we recommend that you visit the Asa Wright Nature Centre, the Caroni Bird Sanctuary, the Nariva Swamp and the Parlatuvier Bay. One of the most interesting sites in Trinidad is, hands down, Pitch Lake, a natural deposit of asphalt located in the southwest, close to the village of La Brea. Entrance is free if you want to experience the viscosity of this natural phenomenon. Another tourist hotspot: Port of Spain Carnival ====================================== Trinidad & Tobago islands share the cheerful and peaceful lifestyle that has mythologised the Caribbean over the years, whose festive side is put on display specially during carnival season, one of the most long-awaited events in the country. Besides being under Spanish rule and later settled by the United Kingdom, France also put its foot down for the control of its territory. We have to go back to this period to find the origins of this celebration, whose particular style comes from fusing aristocratic French traditions with those of slaves brought from Africa to work in plantations. For three days, the streets of Port of Spain are bursting with colour, music, shiny costumes, cheerfulness and a lot of noise, in a big party that brings together all religious and ethnic groups in an explosion of calypso where there is also room for satire and social criticism. Cuisine ======== Trinidad & Tobago cuisine is a blend of Indian, Asian and Creole gastronomy, where spicy food, strong spices and exotic fruits and vegetables are the norm. Among the food on-the-go repertoire, we recommend trying the Doubles, a kind of fried sandwich stuffed with curry garbanzo beans. The Crab & Dumplings, pieces of dough boiled in crab sauce, are very popular in Tobago, just as the Bake and Shark served in Maracas Bay: shark meat-based sandwich. Other specialties include the callaloo, a very spicy leaf vegetable soup, the pepperpot, a stewed meat dish, with vegetables and hot chillies, and pelau, a rice and meat dish boiled in coconut milk. As a side, trying the cou-cou, a cornmeal, okra and butter dish, is a no brainer. ➤ Licence: You’re free to use this song in any of your videos, but you must include the following in your video description (Copy & Paste): Song: ASHUTOSH - Cuba Music provided by Vlog No Copyright Music.
