Atuona
Atuona is the capital of the Marquesas Islands in French Polynesia, located on the southern coast of the island of Hiva Oa in the south-central Pacific Ocean, in northeastern French Polynesia. Famous for its deep cultural heritage and natural beauty, the town was once the home of the French post-impressionist painter Paul Gauguin, who created a large number of works here and is buried in the local cemetery, attracting many art lovers and tourists to visit. Set against a mountainous backdrop, with its magnificent Taiohae Bay and lush tropical vegetation, Atuona is a place where traditional Polynesian culture meets modern life. The local economy is based on fishing, coconut cultivation and tourism, where visitors can experience the unique wood carving art of the Marquesas, traditional dances, and explore historical sites such as Gauguin's home, and feel the charm of the original Pacific islands.
