Om

Hurtige fakta: Dette var Bob Marleys hjem i 1960'erne, hvor nogle af hans tidligste hits blev skabt. Væggene er dækket af muraler, der vidner om reggaemusikkens fødsel og livet i lokalsamfundet.

Højdepunkter: Bob Marley skrev sangen "Trenchtown Rock" i sit gamle værelse med en guitar lånt fra en ven. Den samme guitar står stadig i hjørnet, og på væggen står de originale tekster skrevet med hans egen hånd.

Insidertips

Ask the guide to show you the original lyrics on the wall in Bob's room, many visitors miss them.
Bring water and a hat because the yard does not have much shade and the sun can be strong.
Do not miss the mural painted by local artist Kebi at the entrance, it is a real attraction for photos.
Visit the nearby pub after the tour to try homemade ginger beer made by the neighbors.
