The open-air coffee shop on the street
After the busy work and hard study every day, have you ever thought of rewarding yourself? It's time to give your heart a holiday. Walking in the blue seaside, walking in the noisy streets, hiding in the quiet village, even if you can not really arrive, you can follow the life editor to roam the world on the Internet, let's find the meaning of travel together.
Jamaica, the sky is blue and the sea is blue, your blessings and misfortunes are like the tropical sun overhead. The gentleness of the morning, the scorching heat of noon, looking for coolness in the dense forest. Jamaica, the charming island, the hometown connected to my destiny. -- Jamaican folk songs
The small island is compared to "a blue pearl in the Caribbean". When Columbus first arrived in Jamaica in 1494, he wrote in his log book: "this clear and beautiful green island with high mountains reaching to the sky is really tireless." More than 500 years later, walking in the countryside of Jamaica, you will find that Columbus's words are like a maxim to freeze the beauty of Jamaica forever in its first day of facing the world. The meaning of the name "Jamaica" is "the earth full of trees and water".
On Sunday, the citizens went in and out of the church dressed very well, making people feel as if they had come to the American countryside in the movie.
"the paradise of Jamaica is in the countryside."
It is said that it is the countryside, but there is no barren and shabby as imagined, and the unique climatic conditions make it moist everywhere, like a gouache painting with full color. I rode aimlessly along the road, and not far away was a manor. In the manor are open meadows and slow-growing trees. Brown and white horses are grazing. There are a few lambs, following their mother step by step. Several wooden buildings are scattered in the garden. Bright yellow walls, white windows and columns, and sky-blue fences are fresh and pleasing to the eye against the dense plantains and shrubs.
Montego Bay
Montego Bay may be one of the largest "cities" in Jamaica, but it has far fewer people than Kingston, the capital with a population of more than a million. On Sunday, citizens went in and out of the church dressed very well, making people feel as if they had come to the American countryside in the movie. There is a famous beach called Doctors Cave. It has been serving Western tourists for hundreds of years. Houses have been built around the beach. If you want to set foot on the beach, you can only pay to enter it. Even a walk on the beach costs US $5, or C $300 for teeth. The security guard on the beach is a 50-year-old man with a strong figure. When asked why the beach charges money, he asks questioningly, "is there a beach in the world that is free?"
There are three gods in the Caribbean and Central America, and they can be seen everywhere: Jesus (or Notre Dame), Che Guevara, and Bob Marley. Bob Marley is a legendary singer in Jamaica. he continues to act as a cultural symbol to this day, such as wild long hair and many pigtails, as well as a red, yellow and green wool hat. Bob Marley's songs became very popular 30 years ago. In those days when the music was not yet digitized, one of his albums sold 2 million copies in one country in Britain. Bob Marley creatively incorporated Jamaican reggae music into modern non-mainstream music, creating a new style of music that could definitely be described as empty. His concert in Italy was attended by 150000 people, and even his sitting posture was imitated by thousands of people. However, the reason why he deserves to be remembered is not only because of music, but also because his ideas expressed through music have gone far beyond the scope of art and pop.
In Montego Bay, Bob Marley-style young people can be seen shaking their lazy waist in the bright sun, which is the rhythm of reggae.
