    "The most distinctive water airport in the Maldives. As night fell, the lights of the airport tower kept spinning, and the light shining into the sky was particularly bright. The water airport for a busy day was finally quiet. The crew began to get nervous and busy, washing the fuselage, starting the engine, and overhauling the plane. Under the distant sky, the sunset kept changing the colorful colors, and the blues in the night sky finally made everything quiet. Good night ⭐️"
    Hulhule.Male International Airport
    2.9km from downtown
    Highlights: Under normal circumstances, if the distance is more than 80 kilometers, you should choose a seaplane to visit the island, because such a long distance is not convenient for dhoni and yachts. There are usually only two types of seaplanes in the Maldives, red and blue. Among them, red is relatively more. One of the important reasons is that red is of course more eye-catching. Maldives seaplanes are small, with very little space and can not accommodate too many people, generally more than 10 people (usually no more than 16). The seaplane airport is located in the corner of the bay of Male Island. There are quite a lot of them. Therefore, the frequency of lifts is high. Therefore, passengers do not need to worry about the problem of rushing. Usually, there is a trip every few minutes. This is because Maldives is careful about transportation. It will not let passengers waste too much time, and try to keep passengers enjoying more travel time. Taking a Maldives seaplane is not only to deal with the problems of time and distance, but also to enjoy the wonderful scenery of the Maldives at a high altitude. Thousands of meters of altitude, blue sky and blue sea, gentle waves rolling in the wind, beautiful islands, emerald green tropical plants, white pearl sand, and chic resort hotels, all of which have a panoramic view, all of which belong to heaven. Maldives. Maldives' seaplanes have voyages to various hotels, but the time is different. Luggage is limited to 40 pounds per person. The sailing time of the seaplane is limited to the daytime. The plane does not operate at night. The flight starts at 5:30 in the morning and the last flight is at 5:00 in the afternoon. This passenger should pay special attention. Matters needing attention: Due to the time problem, passengers should control the time to arrive at the seaplane airport; the luggage should not be overweight. Of course, smoking is also prohibited in the airport and the plane.

    "For most people this will be their first or last stop in The Maldives, as it is the island on which the airport is located.It is newly reclaimed land and being designed as a kind of "back-up" capital city in case neighboring Male succumbs to rising sea levels. As such, it is a bit of construction site as new hotels, apartments etc are going up all over the place.An okay beach for a quick dip, but gets a bit of floating trash.In any case, it is okay stopover for a night after arriving or before leaving the country."
    Hulhumale.Male International Airport
    5.1km from downtown
    Highlights: Hulhumale is located on the north side of Male Island, on the other side of the airport, a newly built artificial island, built to relieve the overweight of Male Island. This is where the Maldives International Airport is located and is also a local inhabited island. There are many hotels on the island, including communities, schools, pharmacies, shops and mosques. The facilities are complete and very convenient. Future planning Due to the rising sea level, the entire Maldives may be submerged by sea water. In order to preserve the national civilization, the local government began to build Hulhumale, which is about 3 meters above sea level. When the Maldives is submerged by the sea, this is the new capital of the island nation. Hulhumale is currently under construction and is expected to be completed in 2020. Here, you can get an early look at what the Maldives capital will look like in the future. How to get there You can take a boat to Hulhumale from the Hulhumale ferry port in the north of Male. Slightly larger than Male, the island has wide and paved roads, so it attracts a large number of cyclists and car enthusiasts who come to train here every Friday afternoon to evening. Things to do If you come here, you can walk, swim or dive on the beaches and lagoons on the east side of the island. There are two professional diving schools on the island, offering diving courses, landscape diving and cruise diving. You can also head to the fishing grounds to fish and then grill your loot on the northwest corner of the island. Of course, there are also tourists walking on the island, but it is recommended to travel at night, as it is hotter during the day than in Male.

    "Maldives Presidential Palace, I particularly like the design here, looks very beautiful, but come here can only visit the outside, can not go inside oh, very suitable to come with friends, this side of the photo is very beautiful."
    Malé.Male City
    408m from downtown
    Highlights: The Presidential Palace is located in the central area of Male and is a masonry building. The front is covered with reflective glass, which looks colorful and dazzling on a sunny day. Before the square, the red and green Maldivian flag swayed freely with the wind and reflected on the glass wall, forming an impressive scenery. History The Presidential Palace, located across the road from the Old Friday Mosque, was built in the early 20th century. For a long time, it has been used as a government office, so it has always been guarded by guards in front of the official residence. After President Nasheed came to power in 2009, he decided to reduce the expenditure and staff of the presidential palace, and it became the presidential palace again. Before and after the political turmoil in February 2012, it became an important venue for demonstrations by Nasheed supporters and opponents. Appearance The Presidential Palace was built when the Maldives became a republic for the first time. As a very historical building in Male, even though it is no longer the Presidential Palace today, its beautiful shape still attracts a large number of tourists to visit, and group photos can often be seen. of people. From the outside, the Presidential Palace does not look like a century-old building, but is full of modern flavor. Its architectural style is very different from other buildings in Male, and it looks very Western, which is unique in Male. The pink roof with white walls and blue pillars is like a building in a fairy tale world, which makes people dazzled. The surrounding area of the Presidential Palace is full of green trees and flowers, which are very close to nature, making people feel relaxed and happy. Today, it is no longer the residence of the President of the Maldives, but has been transformed into a place for various state activities. Although it is no longer the political center of the Maldives, it still attracts tourists from all over the world with its unique style and history. Because it is not possible to visit inside, there is not much to see in the Presidential Palace. You can reserve about half an hour, which is enough to stroll around the building comfortably for a week.

    "The environment is good, the environment is good, the environment is good."
    Malé.Male City
    597m from downtown
    Highlights: Take a submarine to watch fish and corals at a depth of about 40 meters, not whales. For diving enthusiasts, this is too little witch, but for tourists who do not know how to dive and want to enjoy the underwater scenery, it is a very safe and fun activity. The submarine stays underwater for 45 minutes, and it takes 40 minutes to get up and down. It takes about 1.5 hours in total. Visitors can watch fish, turtles, corals, etc. through the windows on both sides of the submarine. You can sign up at the airport (there is a special counter), or you can sign up at the first pier (commonly known as PresidentJetty). The Whale Submarine Club is launched several times a day and needs to arrive 30 minutes in advance.
