Maldives is renowned for being a holiday-goers dream destination. Little do the masses know of this picturesquely exotic island-nation and its long history of being under British rule. Before the Maldives became the glamorous tourist destination it is today, it was under the British back in 1887. After several attempts to gain independence, the breakthrough came in 1965 when Maldives signed an agreement with the United Kingdom and claimed its independence.

Maldives celebrated its 49th year of independence on 11th November and has won over countless tourists across the world for its picture-postcard beaches. In order to make holidays in Maldives memorable and present, visitors who were holidaying in Maldives during Republic Day, stayed in Kurumba Maldives, a well known Maldives resort.
