Saint-Denis is an essential introduction to the multiple, flavoursome colours of Réunion. The lively streets in the city centre reflect the cocktail of different ethnic groups and cultures of Réunion. Although none of the districts are reserved for one cultural group, on the street corners you will find the old boutiques run by the Chinese community and on rue Marechal-Leclerc, shops managed by Indian Muslims. All this, just like the Creole cari, makes a beautiful melting pot, where the customs and traditions from three continents rub shoulders.
