Archipelago located in the Indian Ocean includes1190 atolls, where top-class hotels and resorts are situated. Each atoll is the focus of unique natural attractions and charming beaches. Pristine natural beauty can be called the main feature of the archipelago. It's worth noting that local beauty isn't limited to terrestrial landscapes, as the underwater world is also extraordinarily beautiful. That's why fans of diving and snorkeling prefer resting on Maldives. With regard to traditional tours and scenic walks, guests of elite resorts won't be disappointed. A significant part of historical attractions are concentrated in the capital of the archipelago, the city of Male. The starting point for many excursions is the main square of the capital, Jumhooree Maidhan. Its construction began only recently, in 1988. Today the picturesque square is one of the busiest places of the archipelago. Amazing shops and restaurants are concentrated around it, as well as picturesque streets ideal for walks. Hukuru Miskiiy is among the most notable historical sights. The age of mosque is almost a thousand years. This beautiful old building has perfectly preserved to this day. During the tour you can see symbolic drawings carved in stones; those were created by masters in the 13th century. Next to the old mosque there is a cemetery, which also has great historical value. Its territory features the tomb of Sultan Abu Al Barakat and other rulers famous for their great deeds. However, the biggest religious building is Old Friday Mosgue. It's a large architectural complex including Islamic center and the mosque itself with luxurious golden domes. The mosque can accommodate 5,000 worshipers at the same time.

But at the age of twenty, Nastasia embarked on a solo trip to South Africa to volunteer at an orphanage in Cape Town, which sparked a love of world travel. Recognizing a void in the travel industry, she founded Dame Traveler, the first female travel community on Instagram, now more than half a million strong. Nastasia herself has traveled to sixty-three countries on solo adventures, sharing colorful photos of her tantalizing travels along the way. Dame Traveler celebrates these women with a photographic collection of 200 stunning images paired with inspiring captions, 80% of which have never been seen on the Instagram account.

Book excerpt: In just a few decades, a tiny state has managed the feat of making itself famous in the eyes of the whole world as the example of paradise on Earth, dethroning the Seychelles or Bora-Bora. The Maldives is the kind of country that nobody knows how to position on a world map, but whose name everyone knows. We don't even know who told us about it the first time. A couple of friends returning from a honeymoon? An advertisement in the subway? A ranking of the most beautiful beaches in the world? Or one of those Powerpoint files of photos of blue lagoons that people exchanged by e-mail at the beginning of the internet? In the popular imagination, the Maldives, we never go there. It's too expensive. Will the paradise be up to our imagination? The most informed among us wonder why a supposedly paradisiacal state is so often plagued by political violence and religious fundamentalism. Environmentalist wonder whether a landscape that is proclaimed paradise should be a natural territory preserved with coral or a tourist counterfeit. This colorful book offers a 360° panorama of the history, geography and culture of the Maldives.

Download or read book The Maldives written by J. J. Robinson and published by Hurst & Company. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Maldives is a small and beautiful archipelago south of India, more renowned for luxury resorts than experiments in democracy. It is a country of contradictions, where tourists sip cocktails on the beach while on nearby islands local women are flogged for extramarital sex and blackmarket vodka costs $140 a bottle. Until 2008 the Maldives also hosted Asia's longest-serving dictator, Maumoon Abdul Gayoom. A former political prisoner, Mohamed Nasheed, an environmental activist, journalist, and politician, brought Gayoom's thirty-year autocracy to a sudden end, in the Maldives' first democratic elections. Young, progressive and charismatic, President Nasheed thrust the Maldives into the spotlight as a symbol of the fight against climate change and the struggle for democracy and human rights in one of the world's strictest Islamic societies. But dictatorships are hard to defeat, enduring in a country's institutions and the minds of people conditioned to autocracy over three decades. Democracy brought turmoil, protests, violence and intense political polarization. The ousted dictatorship overthrew Nasheed's government in February 2012, supported by Islamic radicals and mutinying security forces. Amid Byzantine intrigue, the fight for democracy was just beginning.
