솔로몬제도는 2차 세계대전 당시 미국과 일본이 태평양의 주도권을 쟁취하기 위해 맞붙었던 장소이기도 하다. 2차 세계대전 중 가장 치열한 육지전이라 평가되는, 과다카날 전투. 육지와 바다 그리고 공중에서 벌어진 6개월간의 전쟁으로 일본군은 사망자만 2만 명이 넘었고, 2차 세계대전에서 결국 일본이 패하게 되는 중요한 요인이 되었다고 한다. “놀라워요. 태평양의 조그마한 섬에서 이렇게 큰 전투가 일어났다는 게 믿기지 않네요.” 전국에 흩어졌던 이 전쟁 잔해를 한 곳에 모아놓은 건, 솔로몬제도 정부가 아닌 전쟁을 경험했던 개인이었다. “우리는 앞으로 솔로몬제도에 더 이상의 전쟁은 없을 것이라고 믿습니다. 전쟁 잔해들을 모은 이유는 솔로몬제도 사람들은 이곳에서 전쟁이 있었다는 사실은 알지만, 실제로 무슨 일이 있었는지 볼 기회가 없는데 여기에 오는 사람들은 눈으로 확인하고 역사를 이해하게 되는 겁니다.” 열강의 틈바구니 속 아픈 상처도 이제는 시간의 흐름 속에서 삶의 풍경이 되었다.

Solomon Islands during World War II the United States and Japan is also a place that had worked to seize the initiative in the Pacific. Before World War II the most intense land because of that evaluation, the battle over Canal. Japanese troops to war on land and sea and in the air took place six months is 10 002 million exceeded the death toll in World War II and eventually that Japan is an important factor to be defeated. Astonishing. So in the great battles of the Pacific small island anneyo I believe it happened. This collection of war wreckage where a gun had been scattered throughout the country, was the individual who experienced the Solomon Islands government, not the war. We believe that there will be no more war in the future of Solomon Islands. In fact, the reason I know is a collection of war wreckage Solomon Islands people the war was here, I do not actually have a chance to see what had happened to the people who come here are going to be confirmed by the eye to understand the history. Teumbaguni genus of powers The landscape of painful wounds was life in the flow of time now.

화산 트래킹을 마치고 원주민들이 사는 마을로 내려왔다. 그런데 나를 보는 눈빛이 심상치 않다. 그때 누군가가 나타나 마을 사람들을 들여보낸다. 이 마을 추장과 아들이라고 소개한 이들은 나보고 일단 자기와 함께 가줘야겠다고 한다. 외지인이 허락도 없이 마을에 찾아온 것에 단단히 화가 난 모양이다. “우리는 당신들이 미심쩍어요. 뭔가 좋지 않은 일이 생길 것 같은 예감도 들고요. 당신들이 우리 문화에 대해서 어떻게 알고 오게 됐는지 그 경로도 의심스럽습니다.” “우리는 당신들을 해치려고 온 게 아닙니다. 전통을 지키며 사는 모습이 궁금할 뿐 이예요.” 한 시간 가량을 설득했을까. “기쁩니다. 솔로몬 정부도 아닌 한국의 방송국에서 오신 것을 환영합니다. 오늘 전통 결혼식이 있는데. 결혼식에 오시면 솔로몬제도의 전통춤도 볼 수 있어요.” 솔로몬제도에서의 결혼식은 온 마을 사람들이 다함께 준비하는 큰 행사다. 마을 잔치에 라디오도 동원됐다. 이건 뭔데 사람소리가 나지? 그런데 아까부터 뭘 저렇게 먹는 걸까? “솔로몬제도 전통 음식입니다. 우리가 이야기를 나눌 때 즐겨 먹는 음식이에요. 이것을 먹으면 기분이 좋아져요. 비틀넛을 씹으면 들떠서 이야기하게 됩니다. 솔로몬제도의 전통 약이라고 할 수 있는데 먹으면 먹을수록 기분이 좋아져요.” 비틀넛을 씹으면 이가 빨개져서 ‘솔로몬립스틱’으로 부르기도 한다는데, 약간의 환각작용으로 기분이 좋아져 간식처럼 즐겨먹는다고 한다. 오늘의 주인공 신부는 뭐하고 있을까? 궁금한 나는, 신부대기실을 빼꼼히 들여다봤다. 올해 스물다섯인 멜라니. 전통 의상으로 한껏 치장한다. 사보섬의 이 부족은 신랑이 신부를 사오는 전통 동네 아낙들은 음식 준비로 분주하다. 주식인 카사바를 갈아 얇게 펴서 만드는 ‘카사바코코넛 푸딩’은 우리나라의 떡과 비슷한 음식인데, 이미 달궈진 전통 돌화로에 하나씩 포장된 푸딩을 올려놓고 찌면 된다. 깜짝 놀라 옆을 보니 동네 아이들이 돼지를 잡는 모양이다. 운명을 직감했는지 날쌔게 도망쳐보지만 이내 잡히고 만다. 솔로몬제도에서 돼지는 비싸기 때문에, 돼지를 잡는 것은 큰 잔치에나 가능한 일이라고 한다. 전통결혼식에서 가장 중요한 의식. 신랑 어머니가 신부 가족에게 조개화폐를 건넨다. 아직도 솔로몬제도 일부 부족에서는 남자가 결혼을 하기 위해, 조개화폐를 신부 가족에 주고 신부를 산다고 한다. “우리 마을에서 여자는 부족수를 늘려주기 때문에 아주 소중한 존재입니다. 우리 부족의 대를 이어주는 데 큰 역할을 하기 때문에 아주 중요합니다.” 신부는 행복한지 터져 나오는 미소를 참지 못한다. 다소 요란한 신부입장에 이은, 신랑입장. ‘축가’를 곁들인 ‘전통춤’이 이어진다. 다른 부족과 전쟁에 나설 때 추던 춤으로 용맹함을 표현한 것이라고 한다. 여자들의 춤은 좀 더 구성지고 부드러운 느낌이다. “오늘 결혼하는 저는 행운아죠. 제가 신부를 마련하는데 도와주는 마을 사람들과 부모님이 계시다는 것도 행복합니다. 삼촌과 친척들 모두 제가 조개 화폐를 준비하는 걸 도와줬어요. 우리 마을은 이렇게 서로 돕죠. 다른 마을에는 조개 화폐를 마련하지 못해 결혼을 못하는 사람들도 있습니다. 저는 행복합니다.” 자신들의 전통을 소중히 지키는 사람들. 흥겨운 하루가 저물어간다.

Honiara offers crewed charters in the Virgin Islands,and also in St. Martin/Leewards (delivery charges apply). The spacious forward cabin is great for special occasion vacations: honeymoon, anniversaries, etc. Port cabin is used for a third guest, for example in a family.

Top 10 Things to See and Do on the Solomon Islands
Get more Tips here!
Taking a trip to the Solomon Islands will be unlike any other vacation you’ve ever experienced. When visiting one of the last untouched destinations in the Pacific, here are 10 things to see and do.
1. See the Traditional Villages
Choose the Kmaga Village experience where you’ll sleep in a beachfront bungalow and receive top-notch hospitality from the villages’ chief and local families.
2. Visit Central Market in Honiara
Head to Central Market in Honiara on the island of Guadalcanal. The stands are lined with crafts made by talented artisans, fresh fish, fruits, and veggies, and handmade souvenirs for you to take back home.
3. Rent a Boat
Various companies offer boat charters, or you can get behind the wheel and navigate the Pacific on your own. But you can always rent a kayak for a few hours and take in the sights as you paddle along the coast.
4. Snorkel in the Bonegis
They are known for being the best places to explore the Solomons’ marine life. Beneath the Pacific, you’ll see beautiful coral reefs, tropical fish, octopus, and maybe even a few shipwrecks from World War II.
5. The Vilu War Museum
The remnants from those battles during WWII with Japanese and American aircrafts can be found at this open-air museum located deep within the forest of Honiara.
6. Go Birdwatching
Grab your binoculars and your long-focus lens camera and make the trek out to Imbu Rano Lodge. Some of the bird species that you’re likely to encounter include parrots, kingfishers, and white-eyes.
7. Travel to Skull Island
Catch a plane to Munda. And take a boat to Vonavona Lagoon to reach the country’s most sacred place: Skull Island. It’s surrounded by human skulls who were killed during the islands’ headhunting days.
8. Chew a Betel Nut
You should take part in some of their traditional ceremonies, including a little bit of betel nut chewing. A betel nut is the brown or yellow seed of the Areca palm, and users have cited a euphoric feeling while chewing on the nut. All we have to say is: chew at your own risk!
9. Hike Up Kolombangara
This volcano last erupted 10,000 years ago. You’ll need a tour guide to lead you along the way and hack away at the overgrown brush that covers the trail. And after two days, you’ll finally reach the crater.
10. Fall in Love With Tenaru Falls
If you enjoy the great outdoors, we guarantee you’ll fall in love with Tenaru Falls near Honiara. To reach the falls, it’s best to rent a 4WD vehicle because it’s no easy trek through the rough and treacherous path. But it’s definitely worth the drive!

De camino al museo de Vilu 8/2013
Una vez se abandona la única carretera asfaltada de la isla todo se convierte en esto. Bueno, de hecho muchas áreas de la isla aún hoy solo se puede llegar por barco. El interior montañoso es infranqueable como lo era aquél entonces.
Aqui vemos uno de los caminos buenos de la isla que te lleva nada más y nada menos que a un museo de relíquias de la guerra. El Vilu war museum.
En este clip podemos ver buenos ejemplos del famosa hierba Kunai y los majestuosos árboles.
