Dear one who will answer,

I will travel to Jamaica in December of this year. I would like to know more about traditions, traditional arts, traditional (spiritual..) thinking, teachings. Could you recommend how to start this researching?

Thank you for reply

A: Csilla, we have a lot of information here about traditions...but not everything. For example, you can find information about music, food, sports,...and so on. So, this site is a good place to start.

For "traditional arts" you are going to have to do a google keyword search. We don't have any information on this site yet, but we will add as we go along. You can search for keywords like "jamaican traditional arts," "Jamaican plays," "Jamaican festivals," jamaican movies" ...and so on.

For the "traditional (spiritual) thinking", there is christian, muslim, rastafarian among others. You will find a lot of info about rastafarians here...not much about christianity and other religions, so once again you will have to widen your search to other sites on the internet.

I hope this helps and that your research will turn out successful and that you will enjoy your visit to our wonderful little island as well.
