Nassau

Nassau is the capital of Bahamas and the largest city in the country. It stands out for its architecture combining colonial and European style.

History

It was towards the end of the 17th century that the city was created by the English from Eleuthera. It was named Charles Town. In 1684, it was destroyed by the Spaniards and its name was changed to Nassau in 1695. During the 18th century, the city was the refuge of the pirates of the Caribbean. Woodes Rogers became the royal governor and was sent to Nassau to maintain order in the city.

The city of Nassau was burned several times during attempted Spanish invasions. It passed into the hands of American revolutionaries in 1776.

Culture

The culture of Nassau is alluring with a unique artistic flair. As for music, we find soca, reggae, calypso, etc. which are rhythms that have nothing to envy of European music. Religion occupies an important place in the city of Nassau. Indeed, the great fervor of the Bahamians stems from the Puritan emigration of the 17th and 18th centuries. There are countless churches in the Bahamas archipelago.

The unavoidable

Nassau has several places you shouldn't miss. There is Jaws Beach located in the Northwest which is a very beautiful city beach. The Atlantis Paradise is also a must see in Nassau. It is a club comprising a casino, an Aquaventure, a hotel with 2,300 rooms, more than 10 swimming pools and about 20 restaurants. You can also go to Nassau Straw Street which is a small traditional market where the city's straw souvenirs are sold. Fort Montagu is also highly coveted by tourists. It was built in 1741 for the defense of the city and allows you to relive moments of battle.
