Georgetown is located on the northern Atlantic coast and the Demerara River in Guyana, serving as the capital and the largest city of the country. The city is the commercial and industrial hub of Guyana, as well as a distribution and processing center for coastal agricultural products and inland forestry and mineral products.

Georgetown is a picturesque city with intersecting tree-lined avenues and brightly colored two or three-story wooden houses painted in various colors like white, red, and green. These houses, surrounded by vibrant flowers and lush grass, along with the red flags fluttering in the city sky, create a colorful and charming scene. The city boasts numerous landmarks, with the Demerara River’s large floating bridge, the St. George’s Cathedral, and the Stabroek Market being the most famous, known as the “Big Three” of Georgetown. Apart from these famous attractions, visitors can also explore the Walter Roth Museum of Anthropology, the National Museum of Guyana, St. George’s Cathedral, the Guyana National Park, Georgetown City Hall, St. Andrew’s Kirk, an indigenous village, and more.
