Brades is the temporary capital of the Caribbean island of Montserrat, located in the northwestern part of the island.The government was moved to Brades in 1995 after a major eruption of the Soufrière Hills volcano destroyed the former capital, Plymouth. The area has a pleasant climate and is known for its volcanic landscapes and tropical scenery, with a gradual resurgence in tourism. As the administrative center, with government agencies and infrastructure, it is the core area of Montserrat's political and economic life. With a population of about 1,000 residents, it retains a blend of Caribbean heritage and British colonial culture and is a window on Montserrat's post-disaster reconstruction and development.
