On the west coast towards the north is Mauritius'
capital, Port Louis, which remains a hive of business and
government activity. A kaleidoscope of color and activity,
sight, smell and sounds. The city has plenty of character,
activities, and in some quarters, signs of its past elegance
are still evident. However, it retains much of its diversity
of character with both a Chinatown and a Muslim area. There
are few entertainment facilities in town to attract visitors
by night and also a major new development on the waterfront.
There are the market for bargains; a drive to the top of
La Citadelle for the marvellous view; admire the grand 19th-century
buildings; see the reconstructed dodo and rare artifacts
at the fascinating Natural History Museum.
