Papeete 🏝️

Papeete, Tahiti, is the capital of French Polynesia. 🏝️✨ The name Papeete, meaning "water jar" in Tahitian, is said to have originated from the rivers and waterfalls that flow from the 2,000-meter-high mountains in the center of the island. ⛰️🌊 It's also a thriving port city, with luxury cruise ships and fishing boats from Japan often docked here. In addition to its laid-back resort atmosphere, the city also offers great dining and shopping, making it the perfect vacation spot. ❣️ #Tahiti #Papeete
