Queens Park Savannah This is an open 260 acre space in the island’s capital of Port of Spain. Its history includes sugar, an airstrip and horse racing. Today, it is a well-used area with its neighbours being the Emperor Valley Zoo, Botanical Gardens and Victorian buildings called the Magnifi cent Seven. The Savannah is the venue for many carnival events, soccer and cricket. You can jog here, walk, or relax. You can also purchase local food from the vendors who sell around the Savannah. This area is usually a lively place to spend some time in the afternoon, socializing with the locals.
