The Valley is the capital of Anguilla, and although it boasts a population of fewer than 2,000 people it's still the main town and a crossroads for travellers visiting Anguilla; however blink and you might miss it! There's not much to this small town besides a few shopping plazas and compared to the rest of the island even the architecture is lacking but it does boast a few noteworthy tourist attractions, museums and art galleries.
