RE: Mauritius #2 – The «Great Experiment» that resulted in one of the greatest migrations in history
Another beautiful article, @digi-me! Thanks for sharing this information about Mauritius and the lovely photos! 😎
Thanks :) I have been here before, in 2011, but there were no information... the only thing I thought of at that time was, that Aapravasi Ghat has had a function similar to Ellis Island in New York, just a much smaller scale. This time there is an Interpretation Centre telling the storry. Half a million out of 2 million went to this tiny island! That is really astounishing!! the site is small. Yes, but a model of how it looked like when functioning, is much larger than what is left today! I learned a lot more this time :)
