1883年在莫尔兹比港升起了象征女皇领地的米字旗

莫尔兹比港(英语:Port Moresby;巴布亚皮钦语:Pot Mosbi)位于新几内亚岛东南巴布亚湾沿岸,是巴布亚新几内亚的首都。据2009年的统计,城市人口为307,643。

几个世纪前Motu-Koitabu人早先在这片土地上定居,第一位到此地的西方人是1873年到此的约翰·莫尔兹比船长,取名莫尔兹比港是为了纪念船长的父亲海军上将费尔法克斯·莫尔兹比爵士。

根据《经济学人》杂志信息部关于世界各大城市的调查,莫尔兹比港是世界上最不适合居住的城市之一(位列被调查140个城市的第137位)。

虽然莫尔兹比港被中央省环绕着也是该省的首府,但是作为首都的莫尔兹比港并不属该省管理,而独自形成了国家首都区。
