By cons, we realize that the lives of Tongan is not as easy as you might think. They live in poverty. It’s hard to imagine the plight of villages triumph over abandoned buildings, where children lack access to basic facilities for their education. .
And after more than two months in Tonga, I still do not know what the future holds for one of the last kingdoms of the world. Indeed, the royal family does not have many points in the heart of the Tongan, who are caught between traditional culture and the desire to keep pace with rapidly developing companies.
Many attacks have occurred recently in protest against the most powerful character in those paradise islands: the king. These attacks have left buildings in ruins at the center of the capital. And hundreds of graffiti and posters to protest against King are still visible along roads leading to the royal palace.
At the center of the capital, the Royal Palace is easily distinguished: they are closed buildings, fiercely guarded, where nobody can enter. They say the king will talk to anyone, especially not to his people. On the streets near the palace, one can see buildings in ruins. These brick walls blackened by fire may have been the unfortunate victims of recent attacks.
The capital of Tonga is not a tourist destination that boast travel agencies. It sends more visitors to the islands a little further north, mainly in the Vava’u group, where there are no attacks. There are quiet islands, small villages and a fairly good selection of activities to do on land and in water.
