First, we'll head to Bougainville Park, where we'll dive into the fascinating history of Tahiti while strolling along this lovely park. Have you heard of Captain Bougainville?

Next, we'll set off to the vibrant Papeete Market, the municipal market in the city. With a flower market, stands dedicated to artisanal crafts, and food stands, you'll love exploring this lively market. Here, you'll find fresh fish, fruit, and vegetables, along with handicrafts such as hats, handbags, textiles, and shell necklaces. It's the perfect place to buy a souvenir to take home!
Our last stop will be at the majestic Mairie de Papeete, Papeete's town hall. Located in the heart of the city, this historic building blends Tahitian and French influences in its architecture. You'll admire its facade, central clock tower, and intricate windows.
