Bob Marley Museum

Ranked 5th in the list of most beautiful historical sites in Jamaica is Bob Marley Museum. The Bob Marley Museum is the iconic reggae musician Bob Marley's old home and studio. It is located in Kingston, the capital, and was Marley's residence until his death in 1981. It was also the home of The Wailers' Tuff Gong record label, which was created in the 1970s.

This is a must-see if you are a lover of Bob Marley and his music. The tour provides a very personal look at Bob's life as well as the history and philosophy of his music. The one-hour trip also details Bob Marley's life when he relocated "uptown."

Bob's gold and platinum recordings are displayed throughout the walls of the house - Exodus, 1977, Uprising, 1980, and Legend, 1984. Many of Marley's notable accolades may be found if you go through. Rastafarian religious cloaks, Bob Marley's favorite denim shirt, and the Jamaican government's Order of Merit are all on display. The bedrooms are on the second story of his house. One of the rooms displays media clippings from Marley's celebrity days. Another chamber recreates Bob Marley's initial record store, Wail'n Soul.

The most remarkable area is Marley's unadorned bedroom, which has been preserved exactly as it was, with his star-shaped guitar sitting by his bedside. A botched assassination attempt on Bob Marley took place in this bedroom.
