Maldives has deep blue seas,
turquoise reefs, white sandy beaches and palm trees. It is also full of peace
and harmony, where its people have long spent their days languishing in the
very essence of idyll living. While it is the perfect place to sit on a beach
and watch a sunset with a cocktail balanced on your hand, it is also a
geographical wonder, knowing that there are thousands of fish swimming around
the vivid corals just a few feet away from where you sit.
The islands of Maldives appear
in-between the trading route of the Indian Ocean. Thus settlers and visitors
from neighboring regions and around the world have come in contact with the
islands for as long as history has been recorded. Such is the to-and-fro flow
of people and their cultures, which a marked effect has been left in the Maldivian
people, the language, beliefs, arts, and attitudes.
Maldivians are quite open to
adaptation and are generally welcoming to outside inspiration. The culture has
always continued to evolve with the times. Locals still eat fish and fishermen
still spend days out at sea, but tourism now takes a standing prominence. Most
Maldivians still want to believe in upholding unity and oneness in faith, but
recent waves of reform in the country have created a whole new culture of new
ideas and attitudes. The effects of the modern world are now embraced, while
still striving to uphold the people’s identity, traditions and beliefs.
The Must Visit destination you ought
to see in your short journey of life. . The
Maldives.
