Passing through Sigatoka, and I spot the office of FijiFirst, a Fijian political party...
A supermarket owned by the Naidu family, a family that came in from South India alongwith the girmitiyas and the family worked their way through to prosperity...
Passing by the Sri Siva Subramaniya Temple in Nadi...
The temple is the largest Hindu temple complex in the Southern Hemisphere...
The magnificent Sri Siva Subramaniya temple is dedicated to the deity Murugan whose statue, specially carved in India, is housed in the main temple. The temple also has shrines dedicated to Lord Ganesh and one to Goddess Meenakshi and Lord Shiva...
A Hindu temple had been in existence here for a long time, but an extensive reconstruction and refurbishment started in 1976, with the foundation laid by the High Commissioner of India. The Tamil Nadu provided support and eight craftsmen were sent from India for the work. After years of delays, the temple was consecrated in 1994...
Turning left towards Denarau...
Back at our hotel, we enjoy the serenity of the views...
A nice, cool breeze blows in the air, refreshing our weary bodies, bodies weary after an tiring and exhilarating time at the Upper Navua...
Beautiful views of dusk...
Checking out some Indian snacks from BhikajiBhai at the hotel store...
