It was quite an adventure exploring the Diego Martin area located in northwest Trinidad.Sunday 16th September, 2007, via the Morne Cocoa Road from Maraval.The morning sun was warm and bright and the wind gave off a reminiscent chill from the cold night past.Beneath blue skies and cushioned between green plants and shrubs were houses.Along the way, we noticed plenty greenery despite the recently harsh dry season which left much of the country black and brown.Soon, we were at the base of the mountain and journeyed to the heart of the Diego Martin area via the St.The Bus Terminus in Diego Martin
Finally, we arrived at the junction by the bus terminus which is the furthest that one can come to on the westward journey along the St.Diego Martin area from where we stood.Journeying a bit further up the top we arrived at the tiptop of the North Post Hill where stood TSTT's Maritime Radio Station.Wheel sites located at the River Estate Historical Park, which are places of historic interest and value in Diego Martin.The old wheel, which was once vital to the Diego Martin community and the sugarcane and cocoa plantations that once existed there, is now defunct and serves only as a memory of what once was.The Diego Martin area was once a booming and fertile agricultural region, but over the years, the number of farmers have decreased rapidly as the number of residents increased.There were also large, mossy rocks that possessed some challenges in climbing but added to the natural aesthetic of the environment.We also crossed several large pools, gushing streams, jutting rocks and more mossy rocks and stones.After meeting with two of her children, Faye and Alfred Salandy, we interviewed her about her life in Diego Martin through the years.She explained much about the area and the activities that she engaged in as a child and as an adult there.After our chat, we headed outside to take a look at her beautiful garden adorned with a myriad of flowers, plants and fruits which bordered her home.Visiting that part of the Diego Martin area proved that there are areas in Trinidad and Tobago that are still rich in natural beauty and history but it also reminded us of the fast processes of industrialization and the possibility that much of this beauty could be soon lost.It also opened our eyes about how large Diego Martin is and how much of it there is to be explored.Diego Martin: North Post, Water Wheel and Blue Basin in pictures:
