Royal coronation spiked Tonga's visitor arrivals

Tongan Tourism Authority (TTA) Acting General Manager Owen Pau said the coronation emphasized Tonga’s cultural heritage and the love the people have for their country and their monarchy.

“It was exciting for the locals to be able to witness another coronation so close from the last one. Every village and district prepared for the coronation and cleaned up their villages. I give credit to the Royal Family, especially the Princess who really enjoyed her time with her people”, he said.
