GPS coordinates: 32 ° 17'33.5 "N 64 ° 46'55.1" W
The city of Hamilton is the capital of Bermuda. It has not only a multitude of hotels, restaurants and shops but also many historical buildings, museums, monuments, etc.
The best way to discover this city to get a general idea is to walk it.
Front Street is one of Hamilton's busiest streets. It is located at the edge of the water. The multicolored shopfront adds to the picturesque charm of this city.
At the junction of Front Street and Queen Street, there is a metal cage called Birdcage that was once used by the police to direct traffic.
The ferry terminal is located at the west end of Front Street. Three routes are offered to move quickly to different parts of the island, the furthest of which is the Royal Naval Dockyard.
Near the terminal are two pretty parks: Point Pleasant Park and Barr's Bay Park.
On Queen Street is the Perot post office which was erected in the 19th century. This building still houses today a post office.
There are also pretty colorful buildings including the Bermudiana Arcade, a shopping center that contains shops and restaurants. Nearby is even a Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) restaurant.
The City Hall and Arts Center is located on Church Street, a major artery of the city. It is a huge white complex with a wind rose painted on the tower of the building. It houses the National Gallery of Bermuda which features local and international artwork.
On Church Street you will also find Sessions House which is actually the parliament. It was erected in the early nineteenth century. It is recognized by its famous clock tower which was built at the end of the same century to mark the golden jubilee of Queen Victoria.
In the back of the parliament is the Wesley Methodist Church.
Also on Church Street, we invite you to visit the Cathedral of the Most Holy Trinity (see video • CATHEDRAL OF THE MOST ... ).
She is definitely worth seeing. It has beautiful stained glass windows and is decorated with beautiful sculptures.
At the junction of Court Street and Victoria Street is another pretty church: St. Paul's AME Church.
We returned to Front Street and stopped in front of the Cabinet Building. This is where the Senate meets.
You can also access a beautiful park, Queen Elizabeth Park, from the stairs located on Par-La-Ville.
