HALF DAY TOUR TO THE KING’S PALACE IN NYANZA
Pick up in Kigali and transfer to Nyanza to visit the Kings palace in Nyanza, 88 km south of
Kigali City; this was the residence of King Mutara III Rudahigwa and the Royal Palace that
was traditionally built.
This Palace offers a detailed look into Rwandan traditional seat of their monarchy, it is an
impressive museum, restored to its 19th century state and made entirely with traditional
materials.
Recently the Long-horned Traditional cows, known in Kinyarwanda as "Inyambo" were
also introduced because of the fact that cows form an integral part of Rwandan Culture. On
the neighboring hill of Mwima, you can also visit the burial grounds of King Mutara III and
his wife Queen Rosalie Gicanda.
