Reggae ndi ramu zakumwa pa hotelo ya hotelo ziri pafupi ngati alendo ambiri akufika ku 'weniweni' Jamaica . Ngakhale kumalo akuluakulu a Montego Bay , komabe, sivuta kupeza chidutswa cha moyo wa m'dera la Jamaican. Phiri la Ziyoni ndi mudzi wakumidzi ku St. Ann Parish, makamaka pamwamba pa phiri kuchokera ku malo akuluakulu okhala pa nyanja ya kumpoto.
Msewu wopita ku mudziwu, womwe umayandikira pafupi ndi golf ya Cinnamon Hill, umakhala wovuta kwambiri ndipo umapangitsa kuti mudziwe momwe njinga zamakono zinagwiritsidwira ntchito njira iyi njira imodzi.
Makina opangira masamba omwe ali mbali zonse ziwiri za msewu, koma posachedwa mumapezeka chizindikiro cholandirira phiri la Ziyoni.
Mu Rastafari chikhalidwe, Mt. Ziyoni akuyimira paradiso wamkulu, mwinamwake si momwe mungayankhire mudzi wa Jamaican womwewo. Nyumba ziwiri zikuluzikulu zikulamulira tawuniyi: Mount Zion All Ages School - kumene kujambula kwa ankhondo a Jamaica kukongoletsa khoma lakumbuyo - ndipo cha m'ma 1838 Phiri la United Zion Presbyterian Church. Izi, kuphatikizana ndi mipiringidzo itatu ndi kuphwanya nyumba, zimaphatikizapo mudziwu.
Zomwe zilibe chuma, komatu phiri la Ziyoni limapangidwira kwambiri. Alendo ndi chinthu chachilendo pano - mudzatchula kuchokera ku sukulu zapanyumba ndi aliyense amene akukhala ndi liming pa bars. Malo ogulitsira magalimoto ozunguliridwa ndi Willy (omwe ankakhala ndi abwenzi omwe amacheza nawo nthawi zonse) anali oyamba kuima, ndipo atatha kulamula madzi ozizira otentha a Red Stripe ndinakhala ndi ulendo waung'ono kuchokera kwa wowunikira wachinyamata yemwe ankakonda kwambiri zokolola za m'deralo (ackee, Jamaican chakudya cha dziko, kupachikidwa pamtengo kunja kwa bar, ndi malo akuluakulu omwe ndakhala ndikuwawonapo) asananditsogolere ku phiri kupita ku tchalichi, kudzikuza kwa mudziwu.
Otsogozedwa ndi amayi awiri achikulire omwe ali ndi ma brooms, tchalitchichi chikuwoneka kuti sichinasinthe kwambiri zaka 170 kapena kupitilira kupatulapo masewera ena atsopano, koma anali opanda banga komanso amakhala ndi moyo wapamtunda. Titafika pofika Loweruka masana, anyamatawa adatipatsa ife bingu lalikulu la tchalitchi, ndipo mosakayika timadodometsa anthu ena ammudzi (Lamlungu lino kale !?).
Ana athu omwe tinakumana nawo anakumana ndi mkuntho wokhudzana ndi moyo wawo kusukulu, pamene aartart ankagwiritsa ntchito filosofi pakati pa kuthira zakumwa ndi kugulitsa chakudya kwa anthu okhalamo. Aliyense ankawoneka wokondwa kutiwona ife, ndipo tinakondwera kuti tidziwa mwachidule kufupika kwake kwa moyo mu Jamaican backcountry.
Ngati mukupita, sizikuvutitsa kuti mukhale ndi chitsogozo chapafupi monga Ivan Bowwow - woyendetsa tekesi wokhala pagalimoto ku Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort ku Montego Bay - koma chuma chodzikonda yekha, ngakhale Ivan akuti okaona amatha kuyendetsa galimoto yotetezeka galimoto yobwera ku Mount Zion kuti akachezere (malingaliro chabe ndi mapepala). Bweretsani malingaliro otseguka, kamera yanu, ndi madola angapo kuti mupange ramu bar, bokosi losonkhanitsa tchalitchi, ndipo mwinamwake kanyimbo kakang'ono ka malangizo anu achichepere ...
Ngati mukuyang'ana kuwonetsetsa kwenikweni ku chikhalidwe ndi malo a ku Jamaica, phiri la Zioni ndi malo abwino kwambiri oti muziyendera - osati zowoneka komanso zowoneka, koma anthu, omwe adachita ulendo umenewu umodzi wa zosaiŵalika za ku Caribbean maulendo.
