Moso's Footprint

The two sons grew to become valuable native hardwood trees for the Samoan people and are commonly found in the Falealupo area.

Tuifiti, a Fijian King traveled from Fiji to Samoa with the intention of marrying Moso's children, only to discover they were not females.

In order to restore their friendship, Moso stamped his right footprint in Samoa and his left in Fiji as a symbol of their infinite bond.

Today, although very separate cultures with unique languages, Samoans and Fijians still hold a close bond.

When the tree toppled during a cyclone many years ago, the roots dislodged surface blocks, creating the depression or 'footprint' before you.
