Fiji UNESCO has registered 1 site on the World Heritage list and 3 on the tentative list.
Some places are so interesting that it’s relevant to keep them for future generations. This is why UNESCO has built a list of crucial classified properties in which superb places stand out for their aesthetic, natural, artistic, or cultural significance.
More than a thousand places are registered as Unesco’s World Heritage worldwide. Due to my interest in visiting World Heritage sites, I compiled the UNESCO list in Fiji and the corresponding map.

Description
- Levuka Historical Port Town is a cultural site in Fiji inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2013. It was the first colonial capital of Fiji, established in 1874 by the British colonial administration. The town features a range of historic buildings and structures that reflect the influence of British colonialism and the cultural fusion that emerged due to the interactions between Europeans and Fijians. The site is considered a significant example of a Pacific port town, providing insight into the history of Fiji and the broader region.
UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Fiji have protected places for their cultural and natural importance.
