What to do and see in Georgetown, Demerara-Mahaica: The Best Budget-friendly Things to do
Although not a crowded Caribbean tourist spot, Georgetown is a unique city that serves as a perfect jumping point for ecotours into the South American interior. Its Victorian and Dutch Colonial architecture is detailed with louvered window shutters and brick and stone work. Built below the high tide level, the city is protected by a large seawall and drained by a grid of canals. Sundry goods can be found at the distinctive Stabroek Market, while the landmark Light House offers panoramic views.

Came to the midday service for ashes back in 2017 on Ash Wednesday. The cathedral was quite packed! The media was even present. They do love their media coverage here in this part of the world! Despite being sweltering, there are a few large fans around.

This Bridge is usually used by the Romantic during Courting and sometimes Proposals. Unfortunately I wasn't on a Romantic visit but just couldn't help taking out a photo on this iconic site.
