Image description

Aapravasi Ghat, Port Louis, Mauritius, Mascarene Islands. This UNESCO World Heritage Site, is where nearly half a million indentured labourers arrived from India between 1834 and 1924 to work on sugar plantations in Mauritius and other destinations they could be sent to. The UNESCO site explains that: The buildings of Aapravasi Ghat are among the earliest explicit manifestations of what was to become a global economic system and one of the greatest migrations in history.  The picture shows the 14 steps all immigrants had to climb to enter the immigration depot.
