    "A great little museum full of history and culture! lots of work on display including a full boat, and many interactive features that really teach you facts about the pirates you may not have known previously. I loved that the staff were in character, and it was a great way to enjoy the culture in a fun way!"
    Highlights: The Pirate Museum tells the story of the real Pirates of the Caribbean. It not only displays the weapons and ships used by the Pirates of the Caribbean to capture the Bahamas, but even the museum itself is themed, from one room to another. Different lighting effects are used according to the storyline.

    "The Bahamas capital Nassau, another resort, palm beach, upscale hotel, style streets, fragrant rum wine, bright colors, with warm people. The main streets and alleys are quite good, the government, hospitals, schools, churches, the Governor's Palace, museums, the Queen's steps (Commonwealth countries, once a British colony for a long time), clean and bright, quite tropical, although the back can see that ordinary people are not rich in life. There are still a lot of fun to live and explore slowly ~"
    Highlights: The National History Museum displays historical materials of the Bahamas. If you are interested in the history of Nassau, you may wish to come here.

    "The museum is a visual window into the Caribbean slave trade. Watching live bracelets and head rings appear in front of the darkened hall, and looking at some specific dates next to it, the shock is hard to describe. Today, there are still artworks on slavery that must be displayed here if you want to learn about the history of the Bahamas."

    "The exquisitely ornate costumes make the feel more of a carnival than a rather boring museum. The size of the entire pavilion can even be described as pocket-sized (in fact, most of the country is), but the colorful animal shapes and arrow-matched figure wax figures are very distinctive, it is best to find a local enthusiastic person to explain to you the story of the hunting life, It's funny."
