Museum of Tahiti and the Islands
Give the Museum of Tahiti and the Islands time for a sustained introduction to Polynesian culture, with collections indoors and an ethnobotanical landscape outside.
The institution conserves Polynesian objects and cultural knowledge, bringing material culture, archaeology and the natural environment into one visit. Its coastal ethnobotanical garden extends the experience beyond the galleries, pairing objects indoors with a planted landscape outside. Allow time for both parts of the visit.
