Formerly the Royal Victoria Institute. There's a little bit of everything that makes T&T what it is today. So many artefacts of our visual history that we take for granted. (P.S.- bring a fan...)
When you're here be sure to sample the local specialty of Shark and Bake from one of the many vendors at the beach.

An evening visit is a must. Beautiful scarlet ibis decorate the sky, sunset is fantastic. I advise the use of mosquito repellant and a good camera for great shots of wild life.
Take a random stroll round "the world's largest traffic roundabout". It's not as bad as it seems, promise! Have a sno-cone, take in the Seven, dip by the Hollows and enjoy the joie de vivre of Trinis!
Largest asphalt lake in the world is here in La Brea (Span., 'pitch'). English explorer Sir Raleigh used the extract to mend his ships back in 1595. Never kill hummingbirds... ask the Amerindians!
Long drive to get to this part of d country but its a great location for excursions and trips to the beach with your family.
Day or night, this strip is pretty busy. Lots of business places, restaurants & bars. Finding a park on the main road isn't always easy, but be wary about going down side streets at night.
Dedicated to the cricketing legend, our Prince of Port of Spain. Relive memories of 375, 400 n.o. and 501 n.o. on the western end. Public art on exhibit; people-watching opportunities abound!
