What is the capital of Maldives?
The Capital of the Maldives is “Male'” pronounced “Maa-ley”. Male’ can be counted as one of the smallest capitals in the world in terms of its physical size. One third of the country’s population, of about 75,000 people live in Male’. Different from any other island in the country, Male’ is a city of high-rise buildings and paved roads. While the government offices are located in one area, the main streets are lined with shops and offices. In the old bazaar area, which still houses the country’s hub of wholesale and retail trade, the lanes are so narrow that a single vehicle would find it difficult to navigate through, especially with its throngs of busy people.
