Bestine was the capital city of the planet Tatooine.
It was considered the only metropolis on Tatooine and the only totally civilized city anywhere on the desert world. Bestine was also the only city on Tatooine to be permanently occupied by the Empire during the Galactic Civil War. One location of note within the city was the Museum of Tatooine. The Tatooine Visitors Bureau operated out of Bestine.
Bestine was founded by colonists from the water-world Bestine IV in 99 BBY, which may account for the fact that, a century later, skyhoppers were closely associated with both places.
On their way to Mos Eisley in 0 BBY, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker spent a night in Bestine.
