Trinidad's capital is the engine room of Caribbean carnival, birthplace of the steelpan, calypso, and soca. Around the Queen's Park Savannah stand the flamboyant colonial mansions of the Magnificent Seven, while the city's markets, panyards, and street-food stalls selling doubles reveal its Indian, African, and Chinese heritage.

The world is wide open.
