Inside the capital of the Maldives

Male city is the capital of the Maldives, it is one of the most densely populated cities in the world. Worth a visit to see the other side of the Maldives that is not just white sand and blue water. Great cafe's tours and only 10 minutes from the airport.

It' is super claustrophobic. You can walk from one end to the other in 40min, it's just 2,9km long and 1,3 wide

Interesting video. I would personally find spending a lot of time here claustrophobic with the amount of people in such a small area. I have been to Veligandu island (20 mins sea plane from Male) twice though many years ago. Absolute paradise. Wonderful, friendly staff, great food, and the Indian Ocean which is like a warm bath in the lagoon surrounding the island. One day maybe I'll get back there but it's very expensive from the UK.

Such a difference from the amazing resorts visitors go to the Maldives for. Most visitors to the Maldives dont even go to Male. They land at the airport and then join speedboat or seaplane transfers straight to their resorts. There are resorts in and around Male but I dont think I would like to stay there. Many large ships arriving and departing Male on a daily basis.

[@chillipepper4568]

It’s not that small, I mean it’s pretty small, but It will take about 20 minutes to walk to the other side of the island, and that’s kinda long for some people who have to get to work quick.

[@CioranClaudiu]

But why don't they use bicycles, I only saw a handfull of them. I can't grasp their love for scooters, fuel costs, and in such a crowded space, the scooters use a lot of it.

[@dansky03]

Scary. There are no high lands. Only high rise buildings. Nice country with limited resources. I hope this island would not be struck by tsunami. Very vulnerable country to climate change. Water level rising same as Kiribati 🙁

[@ziihendriix]

As a Maldivian I think male’ is the most cramped and the most claustrophobic island I ever been to in my life ( Hulhumale and the other islands are way better) you could little walk from one side to another in like an hour. No need to use motorcycles and cars to pump out gas that can harm the sky. We can just walk and use bicycles. ( ok maybe have a few cars so that they can go to the airport) and other than that Hulhumale is way better than male’ Hulhumale has more trees and more area than at least male’ and mostly my last point male’ is mostly full of garbage and everyone cramps in to go anywhere mostly the strangers I met half of the are really impatient. THIS IS WHY I LIVE IN CANADA 🇨🇦 way better

@Francis Lim I think he's talking about the country, like it's super small and shit, I mean for me I don't care since I have my social life and academic life to keep myself busy, if I get bored I'll play some games or something, no one here really cares we don't have forests or any terrain to go adventure on, it's just a fairly normal city, excluding the use of motorcycles and lower wage than most Europeans and Americans, our lives are normal, I live in a pretty big house compared to other Maldivians, I had suicidal thoughts before but not because of loneliness, it was due to other reasons. Anyways, you seem to have misunderstood him and you seem pretty ignorant and misinformed about many things.
