Exotic Sepik River Scenes

Hello friends,

I am grateful and considered myself blessed to come from an ethnic society of untouched, unexploited virgin environment. I come from Sepik, a society renowned for its multi-linguistic culture.

It is the home of a great variety of people, plants and animals all united in one traditional way of life since the beginning of time.

There are many things to see and do. Sepik Society is divided by geography into three unique of habitants. There are Sepik from the coast, mountains and river. I am from the river.

Sepik River is one of the largest river in Papua New Guinea and flows from the mountains of Enga Province to Broken Bay, Kopar. It provides food and shelter for animals and people who live there.
People build their villages along the river banks and there is plenty of rain all year around.

The banks of the river is covered with a great wall and canopy of diversified vegetation. These naturally occurring resources provide building materials for the people.

The Sepik River people are great architects and expert carvers. They build nice houses, designed with traditional patterns and totems.

Tourists from different parts of the world often come to visit them. They buy carvings and crafts, take pictures of the beautiful Sepik River scenes and indulge themselves with the majestic traditional arts and dances. The Melanesian Tourism Services is the tour operator and is
