Bougainville & Siwai Cultural Show - CROOKED COMPASS

Описание: Culture is the main catalyst for unity amongst Bougainvilleans, as the autonomous region strives to be the newest country on the planet. Our South Bougainville – Siwai Cultural Show tour showcases that this is truly a land where history can not only be told, but can also be seen and touched.

From the scenes of turbulent WWII, to more modern-day history with the recent civil war surrounding the Panguna Mine, to the fight for independence to the rebirth and acknowledgement of their rich culture. Throw in a pinch of raw adventure and South Bougainville has it all. Witness experiences that few will see in their life. Play in the playground that was the location for so many clashes between the Japanese and the Allies in WWII. Think tanks, crumbled bunkers, artillery and shipwrecks. Home to pristine beaches, traditional headdresses and sing-sings, isolated micronations and a cultural show born out of cultural pride. This back-to-basics festival is a rare privilege for cultural purists. Forget the grandeur and opulence of the highland cultural shows, step back in time to a more humble, truly local cultural show. Bougainville has not always been the easiest place to access making it perfect for those seeking bragging rights of visiting a place your friends haven’t – let alone going to a cultural show that has never, until now, seen foreigners! Make this experience yours and join our Bougainville & Siwai Cultural Show small group tour. https://www.crooked-compass.com/tour/...
