(EMAILWIRE.COM, September 20, 2010 ) Houston, TX - Jamaican Real Estate.net (http://www.jamaicanrealestate.net) supplies a list of reasons to consider visiting one of the largest parishes in Jamaica.
Enjoy visiting the Black River, which is another interesting place to visit while in Jamaica. The Black River is found in St Elizabeth parish and is famously known as the longest river in the country (33 miles or 53.4 km). The town of Black River can be found near the mouth of the river. Boasting an estimated population of 148,000, St. Elizabeth has the greatest diversity of ethnic races in Jamaica. This parish is used mostly for excursions and is a base camp for travelers on the Black River on the way to the Great Morass. The Great Morass is a lovely tropical swamp with lots of wild crocodiles and mangrove trees. Tourists to this area can take a boat tour up the Black River and get a look at the wildlife and the indigenous villages.
In these villages there are jerk shack restaurants with tasty spicy meats, which are barbecued to perfection so they retain that original Jamaican taste. Visitors that want an authentic taste experience of Jamaica should definitely visit the jerk shacks. Visitors should visit the Appleton Rum Estate, which is the home of some of the best tasting rum in the world. The distillery has produced rum along the Black River banks since 1749. Any visitor that likes liquor and spirits, and considers themselves connoisseurs, will love to have some brandy in Jamaica!
