Maldives is known as an interesting destination for beaches, relaxation, pampering and luxury and a rich cultural and economic history. Maldives is a collection of small islands with perfect white sandy beaches surrounded by crystal clear waters and some local sites that are definitely worth checking out around Male. Here are some guides for you.

 

Male was previously known as the King’s Island due to it being the place from which ancient empires ruled from their palaces. However, Male is now the commercial centre of The Maldives and the place where all tourists come in and out of the islands meaning it should be easy to find some time to take in the sights here.

 

The major religion in the Maldives is Islam and it plays a major part daily life, so one of the first places you’ll want to see is the Grand Friday Mosque.

This mosque is the largest in the country and dates back to 1656 when it was constructed by Sultan Ibrahim. The golden dome is a stunning site and is one of the first sites you’ll see when flying into the Maldives. Try taking some time to explore the mosque as its intricate artwork and tile mosaics are definitely something you’ll remember.

 

The Maldives National Museum is set in a former palace of the Sultan and shows that the Maldives wasn’t and still isn’t all about beaches, crystal clear seas and luxury resorts. The museum houses a wide collection of valuable objects telling a story of the country’s past. Many of the artefacts here used to belong to the Sultan and one of the most interesting exhibits is that of his fantastic costumes and daywear.

 

Another one of the major tourist attractions in the Maldives is the fish market and walking around here will show you a totally different side of the Maldives compared to what you witness on your relaxing luxury holiday. The market is always bustling, loud and overcrowded with both locals buying and selling fresh fish and seafood as well as tourists. The market bursts even further into life during mid-afternoon when the fisherman return with their daily catch. You’re unlikely to find fresher fish anywhere else in the world and watching the fisherman loading and unloading their boats of the day provides the perfect summary of Maldivian island culture.

Go Green When Traveling to Miami

When searching for green hotels, Miami offers environmentally responsible lodging for guests who are concerned about our environment. An Eco-friendly hotel uses products and practices that lessen negative impact on our environment, so when planning your trip to Miami, look for a hotel with Green Seal Certification.

What is Green Seal Certification?

Green Seal is a national non-profit, third party certifier that recognizes products and businesses that strive to make Eco-friendly choices by following a set of environmental standards. A Green Seal Certified Hotel must first pass an initial evaluation, on-site auditing and yearly monitoring.

Green Seal Certified hotels in Miami maintain high Eco-friendly standards and practices such as waste minimization, reuse, recycling, energy efficiency, water management and environmentally sensitive purchasing practices.

Green hotels minimize waste and encourage reuse and recycling through such practices as placing clearly marked waste and recycle bins around the property, and by purchasing soaps and shampoos that are packaged using only recycled and recyclable materials.

Any unused products are donated to local charities.

Energy efficient windows, indoor lighting and HVAC systems are in place in Green Seal Certified hotels, and programmable timers and sensors are used in lower-traffic areas of the hotel to conserve energy when it is not needed or being used.

In order to save and manage water usage, special faucets and shower heads are in place in order to conserve water flow, graywater from laundry and bathing are used to clean sidewalks, and towel and linen reuse are optional for guests.

A Green Seal Certified Hotel uses environmentally responsible purchasing practices by purchasing items such as non-toxic, biodegradable detergents. Chemicals containing chlorine are purchased and used only when there is no possible alternative. The paper products found in Green Seal Certified hotels (from writing paper to toilet paper) contain post-consumer materials, and green hotels give preference to suppliers who use environmentally responsible practices themselves.

Green Seal Certified hotels meet a high set of eco-friendly standards in addition to those listed above, so even the most green-conscious travels can enjoy their stay in Miami and feel comfortable knowing they are still doing their part to protect our environment.
