Our illustrated travel guide will take you to Saint Kitts and Nevis.
Saint Kitts and Nevis are a pair of tropical islands in the Caribbean, about one-third of the way from Puerto Rico to Trinidad and Tobago.
St-Kitts and Nevis changed hands many times between English and French, which has left it a heritage of cities with names from both countries. The architecture is very Anglo-Saxon (Victorian) with driving on the left. In downtown Basseterre Circus Place has a reproduction of the 'Berkeley Memorial Clock'.
The islands became an associated state of the United Kingdom with full internal autonomy in 1967. The island of Anguilla rebelled and was allowed to secede in 1971. Saint Kitts and Nevis achieved independence in 1983. In 1998, a vote in Nevis on a referendum to separate from Saint Kitts fell short of the two-thirds majority needed.
