About culture in Jamaica

Jamaica is a cultural superpower — birthplace of reggae, dancehall, ska, rocksteady, and dub. The Bob Marley Museum in Kingston and Bob Marley Mausoleum at Nine Mile in St. Ann are pilgrimages for fans worldwide. Devon House National Heritage Site, Trench Town Culture Yard, and the National Gallery tell the Kingston story. Up north, Rose Hall Great House, Greenwood Great House, and Falmouth's Georgian streets reveal the plantation past. Port Royal, the old pirate capital, sits at the end of the Palisadoes peninsula.
