Nouméa is the capital city of the French special collectivity of New Caledonia . It is situated on a peninsula in the south of New Caledonia's main island. The city lies on a protected deepwater harbour which serves as the chief port for New Caledonia.

My favorite bank notes that were issued by the Bank of Indochina are: 500 Piastres and 1000 Francs .
