加勒比海美麗的小鎮太美了

這是我去加勒比海時拍的一些夜景,實在是太美了。配上這個神秘園的歌更是美哉。點擊看視頻美景聽歌。


Charlotte Amalie 夏洛特阿馬利亞 located on St. Thomas 聖托馬斯, 是美屬維爾京群島最大的城市和首都, 1666年建立. In 1691, 這個城鎮重新取名為 Amalienborg (in English Charlotte Amalie) . 這裏有深水港口,曾是海盜們的天堂。現在是加勒比海最繁忙的遊輪停靠的島嶼. Protected by Hassel Island, 港口有對接和加油的設施, machine shops, and shipyards and was a U.S. submarine base until 1966. 小城長期來都有人口居住,而且人口越來越多。When Christopher Columbus came here in 1493, the area was inhabited by Island Caribs and Taíno. It is on the southern shore at the head of Saint Thomas Harbor. 2010年,城市人口為18,481, 是the Virgin Islands Archipelago的最大的城市. 每星期上百首遊艇擺渡船來回島嶼間,人口也翻倍。

The city is known for its Danish colonial architecture, building structure and history, and a dozen streets and places throughout the city have Danish names. Charlotte Amalie has buildings of historical importance including St. Thomas Synagogue, the second-oldest synagogue in the Western Hemisphere, and Frederick Lutheran Church, the oldest Lutheran church in the Western Hemisphere. The town has a long history of pirates, especially stories of Bluebeard and Blackbeard (Edward Teach). In the 17th century, the Danes built both Blackbeard's Castle and Bluebeard's Castle attributed to the pirates. Blackbeard's Castle is a U.S. National Historic Landmark. Another tourist attraction is Fort Christian, the oldest standing structure in the Virgin Islands Archipelago. A copy of the Liberty Bell is in Emancipation Park, which is a tourist attraction.
