Culture tour on Nuemea

This time around we elected to take the culture tour. There were only twelve of us and first we went on a bus to the other side of the island. It was a very interesting tour run by a German guy, he took us around the grounds first explaining the plants and how they came to be there .
This was a small pond with lily flowers just starting to flower.

This was the Cultural centre itself all made from wood, then we visited a kanucks head chief home of place of gathering.
This is the front door and need to bow as one went in, there was a board jut inside the door which you could hit your head if you didnt bow!
A huge pole inside with wooden cravings on it.
