Maldives, officially the Republic of
Maldives, is an island nation consisting of a group of atolls in the
Indian Ocean, south of Lakshadweep group of islands of India, about
seven hundred kilometers (435 mi) south-west of Sri Lanka. The
twenty-six atolls encompass a territory featuring 1,192 islets, roughly
two hundred of which are inhabited by people.
Tourism is the country’s biggest foreign exchange earners and these
photos will show why the Maldives is one of the beautiful places on
this world.
When
it comes to luxury travel, the Maldives are top of the list. There are
pristine white sands, the tropical climate and the lovely warm lagoons
for a start. But that’s not all. We’re talking lavish resorts,
excellent food and some of the best diving in the world.
