Made aware of the history of Sam Sharpe a national hero, the square is kept nice and the statues are relevant
Doesn't takes more than 2 min to take a look to this square. Located in busy city centre. It's crowded, dirty and surrounded of 'on the road commerce'
Love the atmosphere here.. Food clothes music movies all in one spot. The statue is beautifully made n the history markers are spot on...
One of the locals were telling us the history of Sam Sharpe. He was very proud of his country's history and we had a great time listening to him. The locals were very knowledgeable about their history and very proud of their culture. The city was crowded and there were fruit vendors. We loved walking around.
The Sam Sharpe Square is part of the Convention Center. The area was under construction and therefore we simply drove by for pictures.
If you are interested in feeling the very essence of Jamaican local culture, then this location is a must visit. Be very careful of motorists!
The gritty part of Montego Bay. Lots of cheap shops. Mostly locals. Interesting to see. Local retaurants, lots of traffic, close to the water. Have lunch at the pier.
Big part of Jamaican history. A must see. There's alot you don't hear or see of the locals and if you go to the Square you will see a lot of history
This is a historical point in the middle of the city and is well traversed by locals and traffic. The Main things to see are the statues of the Hero Samuel Sharpe and also the exhibitions in the civic center from the days of slavery. This should just be a quick walk through spot or even a drive by.
This area definitely deserves a stop- the history is beautiful, although it did smell like urine from the previous night- learning about what Sam Sharpe did for the slaves in Jamaica is remarkable
