Government Buildings, Suva

Government Buildings, Suva

The Government Buildings in Suva are the offices of the executive wing of Government of Fiji. Built in the late 1930s, the buildings house the Prime Minister of Fiji's offices, the High Court, and government ministries. Parliament was held here until the 1987 coups; since then it has met in new buildings in the Suva suburb of Muanikau.

The buildings should not be confused with Government House to the south on the same street (Victoria Parade).
