A relaxed, Caribbean feel makes this green and spacious capital stand out among other South American cities; but then again, it is hard to call Georgetown a city.
On my way to Georgetown, locals warned me to be very careful here. Since this only added to the warnings I had read elsewhere, I was on my guard after I arrived. Quite soon, though, my perception was shaped by my own experience, and that became more favourable the longer I stayed here. The first charm I found in Georgetown is the low buildings which strongly define a village atmosphere. I later learned that, because of the bland soil, it is not allowed to build structures higher than 4 floors here; with a special permit, you can make it 5. However, most buildings are wooden two-storey houses; furthermore, they all stand separately, constantly giving you a sense of spaciousness while walking around Georgetown.
