On August 3, 1492, at the age of 42, Christopher Columbus finally sailed from Port Barros with 87 sailors in three ships. They battled the rough seas, endured many hardships and dangers, crossed the Atlantic, and reached the Bahamas and the islands of Cuba and Haiti. Later, Columbus led his fleet on three westward voyages in 1493, 1498 and 1502, reaching Jamaica, Puerto Rico and other islands, as well as the coasts of Central America and South America.
At the time, he mistakenly thought that this was Asia, and until his death, he did not know that it was a "new continent" that had never been known. As a result, some of the islands in the Caribbean are still known as the West Indies.
The Americas were not known to the world at the time. Therefore, it is said that Columbus discovered the "New World". Although Christopher Columbus did not circumnavigate the globe, his adventurous spirit of opening new routes has inspired and inspired people to explore the unknown for centuries.
