Bridgetown

Bridgetown, the capital and only real built-up area in Barbados, is on the south west of the island. In the centre, old colonial mansions lie next to modern buildings. The Careenage is the historical centre of the town. This sound, very useful at the transatlantic time, today serves fishing boats and yachts. On its northern bank, the statue of Lord Nelson, erected 17 years before London's, stands on Trafalgar Square. The 'Public Buildings', in a Neo-Gothic style, surround this square. They go back to the 19th century. You can visit the House of Assembly, the headquarters of Barbados's Parliament. Visit Saint-Michael's cathedral for a pause in the calm and cool. Do not miss Broad Street and its colonial houses, the most commercial street in the town.
