About Rwanda

The Republic of Rwanda (pronoun-ced /ruːˈandə/, ruːændə, or rəwɑːndəin English, ɾwanda or ɾɡwandain Kinyarwanda is a unitary republic of central and eastern Africa.

It borders Uganda to the north; Tanzania to the east; Burundi to the south; and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west.

Rwanda is landlocked but is noted for its lakes, particularly Lake Kivu, which occupies the floor of the Rift Valley along most of the country’s western border.
Although close to the equator, the country has a temperate climate due to its high elevation, with the highest point being Mount Karisimbi. The terrain consists of mountains and gently rolling hills, with plains and swamps in the east. Abundant wildlife, including rare mountain gorillas, have led to a fast-growing tourism sector.

The largest cities in Rwanda are Kigali, Rubavu, and Huye. Unlike many African countries, Rwanda is home to only one significant ethnic and linguistic group, the Banyarwanda. The country is well known for its native styles of dance, particularly the Intore dance, and for its drummers. Kinyarwanda, English and French are the official languages.

Rwanda has been declared as one of the safest, and cleanest countries in Africa. The economy is growing fast and the investments from the foreign investors are growing every year.

By its natural beauty and the many touristic attractions, Rwanda is becoming a wanted destination for tourists all over the world.
