| Home of the Bahamian national capital, Nassau was founded in 1656. It is a city rich in beauty, history and personality. It has been the center of color and culture in The Bahamas since the days of British colonialism, rum smuggling and the legendary pirate Blackbeard. The stories that lurk in Nassau's narrow, flowery streets and within the walls of its old forts are among the most entertaining tales in the Caribbean. Prized for its sheltered harbor, Nassau is also home to Victorian mansions, cathedrals, 18th-century fortresses, lush gardens and powdery white beaches. | ||||||
