| For
many, Ocho Rios
provides an introduction to Jamaica-style shopping. After
surviving the ordeal, some visitors may vow never to go
shopping again. Literally hundreds of Jamaicans pour into
Ocho Rios to peddle items to cruise-ship passengers and
other visitors. Be prepared for aggressive vendors. Pandemonium
greets many an unwary shopper, who must also be prepared
for some fierce haggling. Every vendor asks too much at
first, which gives them the leeway to "negotiate"
until the price reaches a more realistic level. |

Is
shopping fun in Ocho Rios? A resounding no. Do cruise-ship
passengers and land visitors indulge in it anyway? A decided
yes.
In
general, the shopping is better in Montego
Bay. If
you're not going there, wander the Ocho Rios crafts markets,
although much of the merchandise is repetitive.

Harmony Hall was built in the mid-19th Century as a Methodist

Opened in 1981 after a year’s restoration, it has since

There are regular exhibitions during the winter season, featuring
the works of Jamaica’s finest painters and sculptors,
and over 100 artists and crafts people are represented. The
gift shop includes a range of prints, ceramics, books, fragrances
and the ever-popular Annabella Boxes. Promoting excellence
in Jamaican art and craft was the original motivation for
opening Harmony Hall, and is still the guiding principle.
All are welcome to browse, relax and enjoy the atmosphere
or the award-winning cuisine at Toscanini’s authentic
Italian restaurant.
Harmony Hall is located 4 miles (6.4 km) from
Ocho Rios, on the main road to Oracabessa and Port Antonio,
