 Molituva Fortress

The village of Molituva in Teilevu, not too far from Suva is showcasing their unique old village fort to locals and more importantly to tourists as a tourist attraction.

Technical expertise and funding has enabled this small village to restore the fort which has attracted day trippers.

This project is also seen as a preservation and conservation technique for culture and traditional practices at Molituva. Recent research has identified that traditional cultures and norms are rapidly replaced and quickly forgotten due to influencing western lifestyle. This project has seen the villagers take a more planned approach to revitalize and preserve their culture, traditions, dances and attire.

Suva and environs is a fascinating Fiji experience with a difference. Come and see Fiji’s urban lifestyle merged with the natural environment that typifies Fiji to the core.

If you haven’t seen the capital city of a country you haven’t seen the country.
