Rwanda, nicknamed the “land of a thousand hills,” sits in the heart of East Africa with peaceful beauty and poignant history lessons. Kigali, the capital, is a clean, green city that has overcome the scars of the genocide. The Kigali Genocide Memorial pays tribute to the victims while encouraging reconciliation.
The Virunga Mountains are home to mountain gorillas, offering a unique trekking experience deep in the wilderness. Sparkling lakes, like Lake Kivu, add a touch of serenity to this hilly landscape.
