Centenary Methodist Church

The Methodist Church of Fiji is the largest Christian denomination in Fiji. The Centenary Methodist Church was announced in 1935 during the Centenary celebrations of the first Wesleyan missionaries who arrived in Fiji. The building was opened in 1954, and ten years later the Methodist Church of Fiji became independent from Australia.

Queen's Wharf

Queen’s wharf was originally the main wharf for Suva. It was connected to Pier Street before the area underwent land reclamation works. It was dismantled in 1921 and replaced by the larger King’s Wharf at the present site in Walu Bay.
