 Background |
The chain's main island has a population of 14,000. Mountain peaks covered with frangipani and sage characterize its southern coast, while its northern shores display white sandy beaches, groves of bananas and mangoes and clusters of palm trees. Sage Mountain National Park is at 1,780 feet the B.V.I.'s highest point. Filled with lush tropical vegetation, the park exhibits many of the characteristics of a rain forest. Road Town, located on the southern shore, is the busy capital of the B.V.I., as well as the central administrative and business centre of the Territory. Here are the shops, banks, administration buildings, the hospital and Government House. The beautiful 4-acre Botanic Gardens feature a lush array of indigenous and exotic plants. |
