The story behind the place

Parliament House stands in Yaren, where the island’s national debates take place. The parliament’s own guide describes a public gallery beside the chamber, separated by a glass wall so that people can follow proceedings. That connection between a small country and its public institutions gives the building meaning beyond its size. Its pale walls, bright roofs and central gable make a distinctive civic landmark.
