Male is the capital
of the Maldives. An island barely 2.5 square kilometers in area, it is the commercial
center of activity but still retains a charming tropical lethargy. Male is the
seat of government, and also where a number of historical and cultural buildings have been
preserved. The Islamic Center dominated by a large golden dome, the museum and the old
architecture of some houses combine with modern day high-rise buildings to create an
island of contrasts.
Male is the best
place for shopping, and shops packed with souvenir items line the busy streets. The local
fish market is a fascinating sight when freshly caught fish are landed in the afternoon.
The local fruit and vegetable market in a shaded building near the waterfront displays the
local products.
