What most people who holiday in the Maldives tend to forget is that this tropical paradise has more to offer than just idyllic beaches and thrilling water sports. In fact the country also has a rich artistic heritage which can be seen with a visit to the Esjehi Art Gallery. While this well known gallery can be found in the capital Male, you can look to base yourself at Maldives luxury resorts such as Baros Maldives. Giving you a chance to stay at a comfy Maldives villa, this luxurious resort lets you enjoy the very best the country has to offer.
Make sure to plan a trip to Male where near Sultan Park you will find the Esjehi Art Gallery housed in one of the capital’s oldest buildings. The gallery aims to preserve traditional art and promote contemporary works by local artists and artisans as well. As you explore this site you will come across rooms showcasing not only artworks, but carvings, arts and crafts and ornate wood panels too. The Esjehi Art Gallery is also known to host a variety of workshops and exhibitions that give you a chance to get a deeper insight into local artworks and artists.
