Port Louis: during the business hours the capital of the island is extremely crowded, loud and colourful; after closing time and on Sundays dead like a dodo (extinct bird of Mauritius). For discovering the town please take a day time and don't come with your own car, better take the bus. Visit these places: One of the main sights of Mauritius is the market with the fruits and vegetables piled up artistically. Just opposite is the bazaar where you can purchase souvenirs and spices at favourable prices.( Allow yourself a refreshing drink at Yussouf!). The small museum of natural history, the Jummah Mosque, the Cathedral Saint Louis, the race course Champs de Mars; Caudan Waterfront with its restaurants, shops, cinemas und bars: mainly on weekends the new meeting point for Mauritians and tourists. Rove through Chinatown (chinese pharmacy), go for a stroll along Rue Desforges (S.S. Ramgoolam) and Rue Royal. Pay a visit to the excellent restaurants.
