The Mauritius rupee is the currency of the Republic of Mauritius. Currency values are 25, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000 and 2000. The unit of secondary currency is minutes.

Mauritius is characterized by a multicultural society, consisting of Indians (50%), Africans, Arabs, China (3%) and Europeans (2%), with no aborigines. Although there are different ethnic groups (many hybrids), we will proudly say that we are Mauritians, and we all get together and live in harmony. In Mauritius, you can see different architectural styles of different nationalities, feel different cultures, eat different foods, and hear different languages and music.

If you are a foodie, you will definitely gain weight in Mauritius. In addition to Indian curry Indian cakes, Arabica rice, Creole tomato sauce, Hakka dishes and Cantonese dishes, there are also various French breads, cheeses and hams. We Mauritians are very good at making cakes. Of course, there are all kinds of tropical fruits: mango, passion fruit and litchi are my favorites (everyone hates it, the mangoes in our yard are all ripe).

I recommend you to try the Phoenix beer Pearona pear-flavored soda in Mauritius (you will never drink Sprite after drinking it) and rum made from sugar cane.
