History of the magical Spice Islands & Raja Ampat
There is an unknown aspect of history, that is ingrained in the Spice Islands. In the 16th century, Europe craved cloves and nutmeg, turning these islands into gold-dusted battlegrounds. Portuguese, then Dutch, clashed and claimed the land.
Immerse yourself in the captivating history of the Spice Islands! Journey back in time and uncover the remnants of a bygone era, where empires clashed and fortunes were made on the fragrant treasures of nutmeg, cloves, and mace.
Explore ancient forts, delve into fascinating museums, and witness first hand the legacy of the spice trade that shaped the islands’ culture and identity. You’ll be transported to a world of intrigue, adventure, and delicious discovery.
