Suva’s museum archive, wharf market and craft centre
The Fiji Museum places its archive facilities in the adjoining former Nawela Hostel for women. Tourism Fiji separately describes the produce market by the main wharf and the nearby Handicraft Centre.
At a glance
A place worth remembering
The museum archive next door
The Fiji Museum’s current building in Thurston Gardens opened in 1955. Its archives are housed separately, in the adjoining former Nawela Hostel for women; the same building also contains a photographic studio and library.[1]
Seasonal produce near the wharf
Tourism Fiji’s Suva guide places the fruit-and-vegetable market near the main wharf and notes that its produce changes with the seasons.[2]
A craft centre apart from the market
The same guide treats Suva Handicraft Centre as a separate nearby place and names drums as one example of its craft offerings.[2]
