I visited Ybor City, a place I previously did not think I would go to much. Ybor is a city that seems to have either a really positive effect on people or gives people a vastly negative outlook. What are the good things about Ybor? Well, Ybor shows nostalgia, history, and liveliness. It is a night-time city, with buildings that served a different prior purpose that can easily be seen. This is where people love the idea of Ybor. How people see it as a bad place is around the idea of safety. Ybor is widely known as an unsafe place but I didn't see it that way. There is rich history that I have read about Ybor city and how it started. Ybor's greatest characteristic of historical nostalgia revolved around the history of cigar-making. That is why my souvenir is a hand-rolled cigar, rolled in the most authentic cigar shop in Ybor.
