Suva is located in the southeast of Viti Levu, belonging to the Central Division of Suva Province. In 1874, Fiji became a British colony, and in 1877, the capital was changed from Levuka to Suva, officially becoming the capital of Fiji. The city is the liveliest urban area in Fiji, serving as the political, economic, and commercial center of the country.

Suva is renowned as the “Crossroads of the South Pacific Culture” and is an important cultural center in the South Pacific, also one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the region. The city’s architecture is charming and full of flavor, with some streets lined with ancient markets selling traditional wooden crafts and artifacts that are irresistible. Suva’s most famous landmarks include the Suva City Library and the Carnegie Library, built in 1909, which together with other colonial buildings form the most beautiful scenery of the city. The Fiji Museum is the most important and spectacular historical museum in the South Pacific, an ideal place to explore Fiji’s mysterious past.

Suva has a total of 78 parks, with the most famous being Albert Park, which is colorful and hosts the annual traditional cultural festival “Hibiscus Festival,” bringing people into a sea of joy.
