Roadtrip to Moruga
Hop on hop off roadtrip , learn the history of Moruga, a quaint and close knit community in South trinidad.
The village of Moruga lies on the central south coast of Trinidad at the western end of the Trinity Hills. It is in Victoria County, Trinidad and Tobago, and is served by the Princes Town Regional Corporation.
The village is close to Trinidad's oil reserves, and that and fishing are the area's main economies with some of the residents of the community working in Princes Town and San Fernando. It is somewhat of a rural dormitory district for these larger urban areas.
Moruga was in the national news in 1998 when a historic bridge near the town collapsed as a van was being driven over it (there were no fatalities).
We adventure to the Southern Point of Trinidad.. Columbus claimed our land on his 3rd voyage in 1498.
Columbus had promised to name his next discovery after the holy trinity and therefore Trinidad .
There were settlers before Columbus and they were known as Amerindians aka THE FIRST PEOPLE.
PRESENTLY the first people has a direct lineage, a descendant whom is active in the preservation of the community and culture.
