of the island backed by rolling mountains. Though Port Louis is a large city it
contains a relatively small percentage of the islands population.
The new Caudan Waterfront is a shopping paradise where
you will find fine shops, restaurants, cinemas and

up a bargain then visit the Port Louis Market where
anything goes. |

Port Louis Market, with sections devoted to souvenirs,
crafts, clothing, spices, fruits vegetables, meats and
