Absolutely, let's add some suspense to it: "Deep within the lush landscapes of St. Thomas, there's a plantation, a hidden relic veiled from common view. Shrouded in mystery, its story whispers through time, waiting to be unraveled. Today, we embark on a journey to uncover the secrets of the Albion Sugar Plantation, a place obscured from our sight but not from history's grasp. Get ready, as we step into the shadows of the unknown."
Albion was a sugar plantation in Saint David Parish, Jamaica. Created during or before the 18th century, it had at least 451 slaves when slavery was abolished in the British Empire in 1833. By the end of the 19th-century it was the most productive plantation in Jamaica due to the advanced refining technology it used. By the early 20th century, however, its cane sugar could not compete with cheaper European beet sugar, and it produced its last sugar crop in 1928. It subsequently became a banana farm for the United Fruit Company.
Thank you for watching
Blessing Alex. It's great to see you back on the journey of educating us all. I missed these history vlogs. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for tour support and thanks for watching, please share
I wish we had a department of the government that restores and upkeep these properties. If I had the capital I would restore them to their former glory and let Jamaicans see the past even more
Thanks for watching
It's been a while.
Wow.
You ok?
30:20 because a foreign investor hasn't proposed the idea. While if a Jamaican / returning resident would get the proverbial door slammed in their face. Sorry Alex, that's rude..mi a blame the election results or lack thereof🙄 for my flippant comment😁
Nice video..look at all those maaka in your shoe. Wow
Welcome back miss your program and information on these historic places not great history to them but we can't erase them they could be rebuild and use a dark tourism if you have the money to buy
Fully active bro ... beware of wasps on those adventures .... I'm here learning about my country bro .. big up
Yea family the wasp them bad but me plan fi them, thanks for watching
Link me
Elite, i was shocked to see you without your locks.
Yea I got it cut over then holidays, thanks for watching
So was I😀❤
Blessings to you Alex it's wonderful to see you out again doing videos 📸
It's good to see you back doing the thing you love, I had to take a second look then the voice confirmed it's you. Alex you are spot on in saying the Government should utilized the land and make it farmable to provide jobs for the unemployed......Importing certain fruits and vegs that can be grown in Jamaica seems ludicrous.
Very educational and informative. Thanks
Maybe they dont know Alex. That's something you could present to the right authorities.
Wow ur back with the history stuff. I missed them.
Yes, am so excited to be back exploring. Thanks for watching

Thank you, and thanks for watching
Blessing to both of my generals
Happy to see again

Blessings to you and everyone in your household, thanks for watching
Alexx, glad you’re back, as always love what you’ve doing and I agree with you that a lot of these places should be turned in to farms to build the Jamaican economy
Yes my bro nice coverage honestly. When I was a little boy I use to explore this same area. On the same property there is a water wheel as well bro
I am happy to see you return to your original mission as more people are interested in these things both local and overseas as the click bait current issues turn people off. This is good content so please stick with it and you will see progress and growth. I really enjoy these original content
Thanks for the advice, and thank you for watching
@@EliteJamaica You are welcome. What you have topped into is the history and culture aspect of the tourism industry as million of people around the world travel and read about heritage tourism. Example such as I travel to Peru to see the ruins at Machu Picchu and I am planning to go to Mexico city to the Aztec ruins and to Egypt and Sudans to the ancient ruins.
You need a machette when doing these vids bro.
Yea, never knew it was this bad bro, thanks for the feedback
Great to see you back at what only you do best New looking at you bro

You might need to buy a spray paint to spray off the areas you covered especially when you need to revisit the core more than once. Save you revisiting grounds and wasting your time.
That's true, I took some notes of stuff am gonna need to make these vlogs more productive. Thanks for your suggestion
🇬🇧👀🇯🇲✈️🥺😎
