The capital is a low-rise city that sprawls around the coast and the hills inland.
The centre is simply known as 'Town' and is close to the historic docks where there are villages built on stilts over the sea. The administrative centre is in Waigani to the north, with an excellent National Museum, Art Gallery and Parliament House, built in the style of a traditional "Maprik Haus Tambaran".
The attractive Botanic Gardens provide a good introduction to the indigenous flora and fauna and are worth a visit.

Don't be alarmed by the Papuan's harsh and stern facial expressions, they are actually the most friendly people who are as fascinated by us in the West, as we are by them.
