Navala, Traditional village in Ba Province, Fiji.
The village contains over 200 thatched bures arranged in neat rows among the mountains of Viti Levu Island, showcasing traditional Fijian architecture.
Established in the late 19th century, Navala maintained its traditional building methods and social structure while other Fijian villages adopted modern construction techniques.
The sevusevu ceremony welcomes visitors with the presentation of kava root to the village chief, following protocols that have persisted for generations.
Access to Navala requires a journey through winding roads and river crossings, with guided tours operating Monday through Saturday for forty Fijian dollars per person.
Each dwelling in Navala follows identical architectural dimensions, reflecting the community principles of equality among all resident families.
