The Basics

The Sultan’s Park is a tranquil green space on an otherwise predominantly metropolitan island. It’s a welcome place to relax in peace and enjoy the beauty of the Maldives while being surrounded by the soothing scents of various flowers.

History

The park was built on the former site of the royal palace which was for the most part demolished. There is however a three-story wing that still stands and one can witness it by visiting the Sultan’s Park. The palace was destroyed sometime in the 16th century.

The Wing that Survived

The three-story wing of the palace that managed to evade demolition as converted into a National Museum. Therefore you can simultaneously explore some of the country’s heritage by visiting the park.

A Relaxing Retreat

Although the park’s offerings and facilities might be humble, it is still a very unique place to visit and is bound to be an experience you won’t likely forget. So if you’re staying at a Maldives resort nearby such as Kurumba Maldives it might be worth visiting the Sultan’s Park.
