Providenciales Island: topics
If you want to learn how planters lived here in the 19th century, you can visit Cheshire Hall Plantatio - a museum complex, located on the place of a former cotton plantation. During the tour, you will have a chance to see the ruins of buildings of different purposes, from agricultural buildings to the houses of slaves and the manor house. Moreover, there is a unique opportunity to see preserved household and interior items with your own eyes. In the area of Richmond Hill you can see the ruins of other plantations, once successful, but now going into oblivion under the onslaught of time and weather.
Do you want to get to know the culture of the black people of Providenciales? Then you should go to Tiki Hut - a small village which inhabitants try to maintain the traditional way of life. There are almost no reminders that today is the 21st century, but not the 19th. Old dresses of men, women and children, buildings, way of life, unchanged for several centuries – all these traditions are incredibly interesting and won't leave anybody indifferent. A trip to Tiki Hut will not take much time, but if you want to learn more about the settlement and its inhabitants, you can even stay overnight here.
