Pohnpei Description |
|
This is the largest island in the Eastern Caroline group and the capital of the FSM. It fits the typical South Sea island image with its lush vegetation and abundant rainfall washing into streams, rivers and tumbling water falls. Unlike other Micronesian islands it has tropical jungles, mist-covered mountains, mangrove swamps and exotic flora. Situated in the Western Pacific, it is 2,900 feet high, 13 miles wide and shaped somewhat like a circular tent. Called the garden island of Micronesia, its boldest landmarks are Sokehs Rock, a steep cliff face which you can scale with a guide if you are fit enough and Nan Madol, an ancient stone city built on 100 artificial islets off the south-east coast. |
