À propos

Faits rapides: Ovo je bio dom Boba Marlija tokom 1960-ih, gde su nastali neki od njegovih najranijih hitova. Zidovi su prekriveni muralima koji svedoče o nastanku rege muzike i života u zajednici.

Points forts: Bob Marley a écrit la chanson "Trenchtown Rock" dans son ancienne chambre en utilisant une guitare empruntée à un ami. Cette même guitare se trouve encore dans le coin, et les paroles originales écrites de sa main sont inscrites sur le mur.

Conseils d'initiés

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.
