Half-day guide to a city walk in Malé, the capital of the Maldives.

Malé, the capital of the Maldives, is a compact and vibrant city. We spent half a day here before going to Kani Island. The sea here is also very beautiful! When you leave the airport, you will really feel that the ceiling of the glass sea is here! To be honest, you can stroll around slowly and finish it in one day~

Recommended attractions🚗:
Sultan Park: This is a quiet oasis in Malé, with the National Museum in the park. Here you can learn about the history and culture of the Maldives. After the visit, you can stroll in the park and enjoy a moment of tranquility.

- Friday Mosque, Hukuru Miskiy: This centuries-old coral stone mosque is one of the most famous landmarks in Malé. Remember to wear long pants and long-sleeved tops. Female tourists also need to wear a headscarf to visit.

- Fish Market: Located on the waterfront road, this is a good place to experience local life. In the afternoon, the fishermen will return with the day's catch, and the market is full of fresh seafood. Even if you don't buy it, you can watch the lively trading scene.

Recommended food👍🏻:

Try authentic Maldivian dishes. It is recommended to taste mas huni (tuna salad), garudhiya (fish soup) or various seafood barbecues. Malé has many good restaurants that offer these dishes.

Tips💡
- Don't miss buying some handicrafts when shopping in Malé, such as woven baskets, shell jewelry, etc. as souvenirs.
- Although English is widely used locally, learning a few simple Dhivehi greetings can help you communicate better with locals.
- Pay attention to respect local customs and habits, especially near religious places.
