There is a place what I think one of the most beautiful islands in the world. It’s called Bora Bora. The original name of the island in the Tahitian language 'Pora Pora,it means "First Born" and in 18th- and 19th century documents were found and at that time the name was: "Bollabolla".
This is a tiny islet in the group of the Society Islands of French Polynesia. It is surrounded by a lagoon and a barrier reef. Mount Otemanu sits at the centre of the island. These are the most visited places on the isle.
Today Bora Bora is mainly dependent on tourism. Tourists admire the buildings which are typically built in Polynesian style. Houses are a few feet above the in the lagoon so from the window you can wonder the sunup and the sunset.
During when I was reading interesting things about the island I found something what I didn’t know. Tattoos originated in Polynesia. A man's family origin was tattooed on his right side while his victories and awards on his left. They made it with shark's tooth. The government banned officially this ritual.
Bora Bora is associated with the most romantic island in the Pacific- Ocean. Perfect place for hooneymoon! To tell the truth this country is very expensive. So if you like to visit it you have to open your purse.
