THE POWERHOUSE IS GOING PLACES!

The Choiseul PowerHouse is “powering ahead” in Cyberspace with the speed of light. Some claim we are hard-hitting and controversial; some claim we are intellectual and academic! Some even claim we are political! Everybody is right! We are all of those things! We have a diverse global audience and it is our pleasure to stimulate your intellectual taste buds and we make no apologies for that. The bottomline is we are independent and have no affinity to any organisation: political or otherwise! We will continue to publish our "power articles"

We wish to extend special thanks to followers for their support. We also encourage you to post your comments and feedback on the Blog using the comments link following the Articles.

Welcome to the POWERHOUSE family blog!

A BRIEF PHOTO TOUR OF CHOISEUL VILLAGE



Choiseul Village is perhaps the most untouched part of the Choiseul District. While the surrounding communities of la Fargue, Reunion and Le Riche have moved on by leaps and bounds, the capital has stood relatively still in terms of modernization. Yet, it is naturally beautiful and to a great extent mirrors our treasured history and culture! We can consider Choiseul Village a natural heritage site, a living monument of the district. Here are some photos which tell the story!
UPPER MAIN STREET

LOWER MAIN STREET

THE LATE LORD TENNANT BOUGHT OVER THOSE BUILDINGS AND STARTED THEIR REFURBISHMENT

THE RC CHURCH STANDS OUT AS A PIECE OF CLASSIC ROMAN ARCHITECTURE

THE CHURCHYARD AND BELFRY

THE ADMINISTRATIVE BUILDING HOUSES THE GOV'T OFFICES


THE CREDIT UNION AKA "GOD'S BANK" IS LOCATED ON MAIN STREET NOT FAR FROM THE CHURCH

  1. AND the petroglyph! It can be the #1 tourist attraction in Choiseul village. Many visitors tell us they drive through Choiseul village especially to see it and they can not find it.
    A simple Heritage Tourism sign will help to bring more tourists to Choiseul.
