Ribeira Grande de Santiago, Cape Verde: Historic Port Town
Ribeira Grande de Santiago, located on the southeastern part of the island of Santiago in Cape Verde, is one of the country's oldest cities, founded in the 15th century, and served as an important hub for trade between Africa and Europe, as well as a key stop in the slave trade. This UNESCO World Heritage city is known for its well-preserved Portuguese colonial architecture, including the 15th-century Fortress of St. Philip, baroque churches and colorful old Portuguese houses. A cultural gem, Cape Verde's blend of European and African influences, its narrow cobblestone streets, traditional handicraft markets and fishing ports along the coastline offer a unique blend of history and life. Today, tourism and fishing are the backbone of the local economy, attracting history buffs and nature explorers alike, making it a must-visit destination to experience Cape Verde's untouched charm.
