Om

Hurtige fakta: Inde i dette beskedne træhus, hvor Bob Marley boede fra 1975 til sin død i 1981, står hans seng og yndlingsguitar stadig. Det tidligere kontor for pladeselskabet Tuff Gong er i dag omdannet til et museum, der årligt tiltrækker over 50.000 besøgende fra hele verden.

Højdepunkter: Bobs seng er stadig ikke redt, som han kunne lide den, og under hans pude kan du se hans yndlingsbibel og poesihæfte. På væggen i hans soveværelse er der stadig spor af kugler fra attentatet i 1976, som Bob overlevede kun to dage før koncerten Smile Jamaica.

Insidertips

Be sure to peek into the recording studio in the yard: the sound insulation is handmade from cardboard egg cartons glued to the walls.
Take photos in front of the mural on Hope Road, but avoid selfie sticks as they are not allowed inside the museum.
Visit the small garden with native plants behind the house where Bob often meditated under his favorite tree.
Buy souvenirs at the Tuff Gong shop on the way out; the prices are the same as in town and the selection of authentic t-shirts and CDs is excellent.
