Customs and human feelings:

Fiji villages:

Fiji, a South Pacific island country, has unique and mysterious customs. Village is the most basic organizational form in Fiji, and the current President Josefa Iloilovatu comes from Visese Village, so the village is called "the first village in Fiji".

In villages in Fiji, there is a special rule that you can't wear a hat and touch a child's head. Only the village head has the privilege of wearing a hat. Touching someone's head is the biggest humiliation for others. If it was 100 years ago, it may lead to a fatal disaster. 1867, an English missionary was hacked to death and cooked by angry locals because he took a comb from the head of a local chief. Now Fijians have completely entered modern civilization, but the custom of not touching others' heads still exists.

Men wear skirts and flowers;

There are many flowers in Fiji, and people wearing flowers are everywhere, both men and women. (National flower: Fusang). It is said that wearing flowers on the left means unmarried, and wearing flowers on both sides means married. Besides men wearing flowers, what is even more surprising here is that men actually wear skirts. Skirts are called "solos" here. Not only do men usually wear single riding, but even the police who direct traffic wear single riding to perform official duties. It's really a street view. A week-long Red Flower Festival is held in mid-August every year. The red flower is Hibiscus, or Hibiscus, the national flower of Fiji. During the festival, islanders will hold a costume parade to elect the red flower girl.

Others:

There are also many traditional customs on the island, such as the magical singing ceremony of calling deep-sea fish to catch in shallow water, and the traditional fire fighting ceremony, which are mysterious traditions that have not disappeared in Fiji.

Fiji's two national quintessences, one is the whale's flat tooth called "Tabua", and the other is the local native drink "Yang Na".

In the Fiji tribe, girls of the Vidudu nationality held bar mitzvahs and were bitten by ants. This means that the local people hope that they can bear the pain and unite like ants. Miss Tikuna will cut off all her hair at the adult ceremony, leaving only a handful of hair on her head, which is to show inheritance. That handful of hair is suitable for being a bridge between ancestors. At the same time, there are people playing drums and singing. Then, someone will put a needle through the girl's ear and leave an ear hole. If the baby can't pass the adult ceremony safely in the future, it is the hope of parents for their children's happy life in the future.
