The Bahamas contains over 700 islands and 2,000 cays totaling 100,000 square miles. Not as small as you might think, this popular Caribbean destination is overflowing with culture and history. Get a comprehensive tour of Old Nassau, the historic center of The Bahamas. Because of the ports treasured safe harbor, the city preserves its British colonial style buildings and architecture. Originally built to protect the island from attacks, there are three forts in the area, including Fort Charlotte. For a tasty and authentic bite, stop by McKenzies in Potters Cay. Serving up a fresh conch salad, this hotspot presents the centerpiece and Bahamian staple of the islands fish dishes. Dive right back into more culture at The National Arts Gallery of the Bahamas, a beautifully restored building housing both modern and native Bahamian art. Stroll down the Queens Staircase, which was originally built as a means of escape for soldiers in a nearby fort. Now it is used for tourists who marvel at the fact that every part of the staircase, as well as its adjacent passageway, were carved by hand. End this historic tour of charming Old Nassau with a walk on the beach at sunset.

Beautiful video but at least speak of the black Bahamians and their contribution to what we now have. For example it was BLACK slaves who carved the "Queen's Staircase" by hand and built all the forts. There are also other islands in the Bahamas not only Nassau and some of them even look better - Grand Bahama.

+Carl Nissen Mr. Nissen before you call me an uneducated child have you done your research? I am a bahamian and I am taught in history about slaves and the Bahamas did not have Hispanic or White slaves...now please sir tell me where you found your facts about Bahamian history and how slavery was done in The Bahamas.
@itsicy673
@itsicy673 8 лет назад
Mr. Nissen are you even a Bahamian because based on the post colonial occurrences it can be proven that whites were never slaves in the Bahamas and please be careful of calling others uneducated.

@sunnyreactionsedits4300 8 лет назад
Yes, there were a few white, Hispanic etc but majority of the slaves were black. But as we all know it took over 16 years for the staircase to actually be built and as we all know the Europeans mainly took the Africans for slaves was because they thought they could be in the sun longer due to their skin pigment, so yeah, black hands carved that staircase.

Did this video really just say N.P. is further south than San Salvador? You'd think the people making travel videos would own a map!

We are not a part of the Caribbean and the historics are more on the northern side in the city of Nassau. the island is New Providence.

I am a Bahamian born and raised here and I must say this country including Nassau is a Beautiful place to live. With 209,000 of the inhabitants living in the city may cause some issues like high traffic jams and increase in crime rate but as for the rest of the outer island it quiet and extremly beautiful. I love my Country and would encourage anyone to visit The Bahamas

@scruffyrunkin It is astonishing that you feel qualified to speak with authority about a place you've never visited. Wow! And then, you actually do speak! lol Amazing. I wish that you would address the thing that is making you angry, because you cannot possibly be this hostile over this conversation. I recommend a vacation....In the Bahamas! Maintenant s'il vous plait! Bonjour monsieur au madame! :D

@hiu1787 Actually, we do pay some form of tax, that's NIB. There's a certain percentage of you weekly/monthly pay that your boss has to deduct from your pay to give to NIB for the Government.

@hiu1787 Yes, we do!!! I work in the Hotel Industry, so I know first hand what are guests are feeling and saying. And I am a PROUD BAHAMIAN with low tolerance for small minded twits.There is a reason that Tourism continues to be the first source of income in our economy. Tourists continue to travel here, not just once, but repeatedly. I thank God daily to be able to call this beautiful place my home! A sheer blessing.

Out of all the Carribean countries I've seen in videos and pictures, I like the Bahamas the best. It looks like paradise and I love how there are lots of islands spread over the sea. Wonderful place. I feel like I could live there. I'd like to see the poor areas though that you don't see on tourist videos. what are they like? what is the crime like?
