Immerse yourself in the regal echoes of Rwanda at the King’s Palace Museum in Nyanza. This reconstructed royal dwelling is a masterful homage to the past, shaped like a beehive under an intricate thatched canopy that whispers tales of a bygone era.

Nyanza, once the pulsating heart of Rwanda, was a stage where power was seized and battles were waged, according to the lore passed down through generations. The monarchy, originally nomadic in nature, drifted from one court to another until it found a permanent abode. Nyanza, with its rich history and strategic location, was the unanimous choice.
