Malapo

Malapo is a small village in the eastern district of Tongatapu in the kingdom of Tonga.

[1] The village is located on (chief) Luani's estate, and the main hall is called after him: Tāufatoutai.

The famous faikava singers, the Afoeteau (100 chords) hail from Malapo.

There is a huge mound in Malapo, which may contain the remnants of king Tuʻitātui, but no one knows for sure, and the government is unwilling to have archeologists start digging.
