BLACKBEARD CASTLE On the St. Thomas Islands, it has now been converted into a resort. It is located on a high point, once a heavy ground for combat defense, and the front of it is water front, with excellent views.
It feels very powerful, very beautiful.
Without the black beard-infested castle on a comfortable sun day, I set off on a bicycle to the black beard castle on the hill. The first thing that came into view during the play was the pirate who raised his sword and held his domineering position. Although it was only iron, I still felt the majesty of the Black Beard pirate, and his eyes looked firmly in the direction of the sea. I heard from the tour group I was with that the castle was actually a Danish stone tower, and when I saw it, it was more like a stone tower. The castle is all built of stones, some dark inside, it looks very old, reminiscent of the pirate story it has ever had, the foot is a rotating ladder, with armrests is very safe. Climbing up the tower to overlook the blue water and the rolling hills in the distance, it is interesting. Going inside, there is a beautiful garden, not only growing flowers that I can't name, but also building a tall statue that recreates the scene of the pirates' lives. Of course, there are no memorial shops nearby, some of which are pirate-related decorations, cool and very personal. There are also hotels built around, and the decoration style has the feeling of living on a pirate ship. It is recommended that you play for about 2 hours, and its opening time is relatively short. Warm reminder Be optimistic about the route of the map, because it is not easy to find. Put on comfortable shoes, because you have to climb the mountain and go up the wooden ladder.
I am a person who likes castles very much. Every time I go to a country, I always check if there are any ancient castles there. If there is, I will definitely go to see it. This time I came to St. Thomas. I found a very old castle called Blackbeard's Castle. This is a very long-standing castle, as if built in the Middle Ages, has been more than 1,000 years old. On the first day I came to St. Thomas, I came to Blackbeard's Castle. This castle is one of the few castles on St. Thomas. I rented a car. It took about half an hour from the hotel I stayed at to the castle. It was very close and the scenery along the way was particularly beautiful! Before entering the castle, there will be staff to lead us to see the introduction to the history of the castle, but the castle is only open to some areas, most of the areas are under maintenance, which is a bit regrettable, but the open areas are very beautiful, Standing on the tower of the castle, you can see the scenery of the entire island. It is really beautiful, but I suggest you call before you go, because this tower is not often open.
