  This situation is nothing short of heartbreaking. This site, one of the most historic and significant places in Liberia, should be a source of pride and inspiration. Instead, my experience was marred by confusion and frustration. The guide first told me I needed permission from the tourism ministry to enter, then demanded a 50 US dollar fee. When I agreed to pay but insisted on a receipt, I was told it was impossible. This is no way to treat travelers who come to appreciate and honor your history. It's truly disappointing.

  I visited the Providence Island at the Mouth of the Mesurado River. This Island is the first place where the First American Freed Slaves, led by members of the society, landed in 1822. In 1822, the small island at the mouth of the Mesurado River became one of the first places freed slaves from America landed and founded the nation of Liberia

  A very historic place. The Island where the free slaves from the United States of America settled when they were brought by a ship called the Mayflower. It has the Oldest well in Monrovia.
