Kolonga, Tonga is a major town in the Pacific island nation of Tonga, located on the northeast coast of Tongatapu, about 20 kilometers from the capital city of Nukuʻalofa. As Tonga's cultural and historical town, Kolonga is known for its well-preserved traditional villages, royal relics and handicrafts, and is one of the birthplaces of Tonga's "megalithic culture", with centuries-old churches and ancient stone tombs. The local economy is based on fishing, agriculture (e.g. coconut and banana cultivation) and tourism, and most of the inhabitants are engaged in traditional weaving and wood carving, continuing the unique Polynesian culture. Although Kolonga is not the administrative capital, it is an important center of Tonga's religious and folklore activities, attracting many tourists every year to experience the original Tongan life, and is known as "Tonga's cultural treasure".
