    As a Jamaican, I have to say this is exceptionally good content. Maybe you can help stop the poverty tourism in Kingston that RUclipsrs seem to be obsessed with. I could not understand why nobody wanted to cover this part of Downtown. It’s as if they feel they can't get clicks if they are not focused on the ghettos 100 percent of the time. Thanks for this.

      @@keepitreal888-gnc agreed…I believe the country is being attacked because it is seen as paradise by some and a ‘cultural superpower’, by sites like Wikipedia. The comments under the worse offenders/predators suggest people are clicking to remind themselves that they are people out there worse off than them. Especially those who can’t afford to visit Jamaica. They call it ‘the real Jamaica’ even though statistically it’s less than 15 percent of the population. We need to push back and start down voting these videos. It’s not enough to just ‘ignore the negativity’. They are destroying our reputation.

      Actually, there is a very nice restaurant on the top floor of the building she was at with a large deck and spectacular view of the harbour, it really comes alive at night. The ROC hotel across the road is 5 star, really beautiful on the inside, perfect for cocktails etc. A little further up the road has a lovely coffee shop also with an awesome view. That section of downtown is very high end. If Kingston is serious about tourism, it needs to educate the population about how it’s done and organize itself better.

    Happy New Year! I cannot believe Jermaine didn’t mention ST ELIZABETH, 2nd largest parish in Jamaica and apart from Bauxite is known as the 'breadbasket' of Jamaica even known worldwide for this, due to producing the majority of the fruits & vegetables to Jamaica, producing a large quantity of ground provisions, root crops, (tomatoes, melons, cab- bage, scallion, yam, beans, and cassava) fruits, vegetables, tree crops, sugar, rum, coffee and ginger due to its rich soil, ideal climate, and the ability to produce large quantities of various crops. It's where my mother's side of the family are from (a few of whom are extremely hardworking farmers). They are some of the most hardest and industrious workers in Jamaica.

      I thought coffee is mainly from Blue mountain which is in St Andrew, St Thomas, St Mary and Portland. Yes St Elizabeth is known to be a farm focus parish and is said to feed the country. I think St Thomas, St Mary, Portland is also known for that

      There is the very beautiful treasure beach little ochi and bunch of grapes there. I believe the restaraunts in this part of jamaica has the most authentic delectable grandma styled food. Also the accompong maroons are there on the 6th they had the first walk through of accompong since the founding. It would've been an historic event to document as they are the oldest free africans in jamaica as thy fought and won the british army even though they brought meskito Indians to try and track them down. I love the maroons

    Hey African Tigress, I don't know if there's a word for this, maybe 'serendipity'... perhaps,... but I have followed your journey around the world on RUclips, and what do you know.... the cosmos brought you all the way to Jamaica. The next thing was also crazy.... there you were talking a selfie in front of one of my Buildings on Water Lane. Wow! This is the old city. We have been talking and talking about rebuilding this place for decades. A lot of property owners didn't think we would live to see the old city get the same treatment and investment we give to Montego Bay. Needless to say we have lost fortunes investing in those buildings. The street art initiative helps to bring confidence and people back downtown. The waterfront development potential for business is enormous. However it does take political will. It's a positive if late start however...

Bob Marley Museum, I am not sure of the cost to go in. You can also go to Trench Town to see where he was living as well.

It also offer free skills learning through Hearts up to level 4. Skills like Mechanical engineering, Electrical installation, cosmetology, Foods, and even business studies of different areas. Level 4 is associate degree. There is so much opportunities for them, along with work places everywhere in Kingston looking for employees.
