Fiji is known for its interesting history, and the Parliament of
Fiji has played a crucial role in the development of the history
as well as the present Fiji we come ot know today. Large masi cloth
banners hang in the chamber. Although there are no organized tours,
you can watch debates from the visitor’s gallery, or just
stroll along the outside walkways and peek through each floor, to
see if anything is going on through the windows. The entry is on
Battery Road, which runs off Vuya Road, which in turn makes an arc
uphill from Ratu Sukuna Road off Queen Elizabeth Drive. It's about
1km (1/2 mile) uphill from Queen Elizabeth Drive, but the easiest
way to get here is by taxi. Call the main number or check with the
Fiji Visitors Bureau to find out when parliament meets. It isn’t
your ideal thriller of an attraction, but just visiting, taking
pictures, and standing next to something that played such a significant
role in the growth of Fiji is worth the visit.
