One of the iconic landmarks of Mauritius. People of all walks and religion come here to pray

This spiritual place has a beautiful traditional architecture with 6 stations symbolizing the organs of the human body. The idea is that the worshipper who enters these places must respect the place as if the temple was his own body.

The Kwan Tee PagodaThe Kwan Tee or Guan Di Pagoda is the oldest in the Southern Hemisphere and the oldest one in Mauritius. Located at Les Salines, on a Longitude of -20°9'42.12" and Latitude 57°29'31.2", it faces the sea and against the mountains. Its construction and location abides by the principles of spirituality. The pagoda is a very peaceful place with its majestic piece of land and beautiful gardens full of coconut trees in the front of the yard and at the back and a few seasonal fruit trees. The Kwan Tee pagoda is an oasis of peace and tranquility though located in one of the most busiest and stressful place and capital of Mauritius. It is a perfect place for meditation.

Found in the Capital City of Port Louis, the Central Post Office (also known as the General Post Office) dates back since the early Colonial period. The building was erected in 1868, but was inaugurated in December 1870 by Governor Gordon. The Post Office now acts as a Postal Museum showing the history of the Postal Services in Mauritius ranging from old stamps to even some railway history as previously the Postal Services were effected through railway stations acting also as Post Offices in a certain way. We can also notice that this wide space in front of the Colonial building we can see in the above picture has also disappeared, and replaced by the motorway which passes in front of it.

The Blue Penny Museum is an art and history museum that is wholly devoted to Mauritius. To begin with, visitors will take a step back into the era of great maritime explorations in the Indian Ocean before moving on to an overview of the three colonial periods in the history of Mauritius. Your journey into the past continues with a foray into the Port Louis of the 18th and 19th centuries. What unfolds next is the tale of the history of postal services, namely with the very first postage stamps to be issued in Mauritius, the world-renowned Post Office stamps. The tour of the museum ends with the beautiful yet tragic story of a mythical couple, Paul and Virginie. Note: Entrance tickets not included in Price
