Top: the distinctive gables of the Gover nor's house. It replaces the old Queen's Palace, which was riddled with termites and on whose site the new Assembly building and conference centre have been erected. They are out of the picture, at left. Centre: Part of the face-lifted Quai du Commerce, a four-lane, harbour-front boulevard with Donald's department store at extreme right, Quinns second from left.
Bottom: The distinctive roof of the Fare Manihini, the home of the Tahiti Tourist Development Board and information centre. A cruise ship is in the background.
