What to expect

  1. Ivuka Arts Kigali
    20m
    Ivuka Arts Center is an arts center and art gallery located in Kigali, the capital city of Rwanda.
  2. 30m
    The site in Rwanda's capital city Kigali where ten Belgian UN peacekeepers were murdered by the Hutu extremists in order to provoke a withdrawal of the UN forces, which then cleared the way for the full scale of the Rwandan genocide to unfold.
  3. 30m
    Nyamirambo Women’s Center (NWC), a Rwandan NGO, was launched at the end of 2007 by 18 Rwandese women living in Nyamirambo, Kigali. Together they created a project which aimed to address gender-based violence, gender inequality and discrimination. Today, NWC’s mission is to provide education and vocational training to women who do not have the means to pay for such training on their own, so that they can gain better opportunities for employment.
  4. 30m
    Colorful car free zone Street, Kigali!
    Commonly known as the capital point of the city, Biryogo is known for the variety of cultures and foods.
  5. Kigali City Market
    30m
    The Kigali City Market is a great place to wonder through. Hey o some extent the upper levels are much like a mall with the ground floor having vendors of a various types including food and household items.

    Traders are engaging and don’t overly hassle visitors, taking photos is easy and to here is a wide range to see. A few places to eat and drink too. This is not a tourist spot so no real curios and so on, but fruit, tea, coffee, honey and so on for sale if that’s what you’re looking for. Prices were very reasonable and not much room for negotiation but also less pressure to buy.

    A great place to explore - no real need for a guide or a ‘local’ to accompany you as it’s safe, well light and has great security.
