Saint Helena: Jamestown (Revisited)
Jamestown is the capital of St Helena and the only point of entry by sea. The town was settled in 1659 by British colonist and for a long time was administered by the East India Company. The historic town’s core has many unique buildings (over 100 buildings here are listed as “historic from Georgian era”) and has an overall feel of a 17-18th century British architecture (or perhaps Gibraltar given the vertical cliffs everywhere). With the narrow valley location – it’s mostly one street (appropriately called Main) that leads past historic buildings and to the waterfront harbor.
