The Capital of Rwanda is centrally located in this mountainous country. The Capital’s landscape is surrounded by hills and mountains making a remarkable scenic city. Nicknamed by its visitors the green city, Kigali is exceptionally clean and neat and very impressive to see for first time visitors, this is actually a testament to the nature and culture of the Rwandese community.

The city is among the fast growing cities with new malls, gigantic office buildings and world-class convention centers inspired by the old King’s palace bringing about a unique modern cultural architecture. Great restaurants and bars to wine and dine with world class standards and that offer amazing panoramic views are cropping out all around the city giving its visitors first-class services that have a very rich cultural background.

The Capital is among a few of the cities in Africa with a very radiant art-scene. Places like the Kigali cultural village offers a stage for local artisans and local food vendors to display and trade their art to the people.

A visit to Rwanda and Kigali is not complete if you have not gone to one of the several genocide memorial in Kigali. Here you get to learn about the tragic history of the 1994 genocide that claimed over one million Rwandans. The memorial and burial grounds display how a community sucked in war and misunderstanding reconciled and healed over the years. The gut wrenching recounting of the events also serve as an educational experience on the values of dialogue, understanding and not allowing civil conflicts to escalate.
