Rwanda

African cuisine - food in Rwanda
African cuisine combines traditional fruits and vegetables, as well as exotic game and fish from the seas with a marinade shaped by cultures, colonies, trade routes and a unique history. Africa is a continent that stretches from arid desert to subtropical wetlands, plains, and jungle  
African cuisine is becoming increasingly popular, especially among immigrants. However, the different dishes in Africa vary greatly from region to region. Above all, the areas heavily influenced by the British and French, such as Johannesburg, have a completely different cuisine to offer than those regions in Kenya. It is impossible to list the cuisine of each continent by name, but all regions of Africa are part of African cuisine.
 

Rwanda is nicknamed the "land of a thousand hills", which is certainly self-explanatory: countless hills stretch mainly in the southern regions of the country and make Rwanda a scenically attractive country. In the north, on the other hand, Rwanda consists mainly of volcanic mountains that reach heights of up to 4,500 meters. Another nickname for Rwanda is "African Switzerland", and the reasons for this are obvious.
Rwanda is home to some of the few remaining mountain gorillas. They are protected by a hunting ban, which unfortunately is not always observed. The American researcher Dian Fossey, who also made the film "Gorillas in the Mist" possible, lived with mountain gorillas. The gorillas are mostly found on the slopes of the volcanic ranges in the north of Rwanda and are one of the country's biggest attractions.
The beautiful Lake Kivu in RwandaThere are many small, picturesque places around Lake Kivu that have hardly been developed for tourism. This makes it all the more worthwhile to visit this region, which is well worth seeing, as the original but beautiful Rwanda can still be seen here. Kibuye is an example of these many small places. The Amahoro stadium in Kigali offers space for 35,000 spectators and is the largest stadium in Rwanda.
In the rainforest of Nyungwe, located in the mountains, there are many so-called endemic species to be admired due to many geographical and climatic peculiarities. Endemic species are those that only occur in a geographically clearly defined, usually relatively small region. National parks with waterfalls and abundant wildlife The many festivals and celebrations held in Rwanda are also remarkable. As everywhere in Africa, these are usually very loud, very lively, but also very entertaining. In addition, there are certain Rwandan peculiarities during these celebrations.
The Rusumo waterfalls are located in Kagera National Park, one of the few national parks in Rwanda. Here, the Kagera Nile cascades over 15 meters into a lake. In addition to Lake Kivu, Lake Cyambwe is also worth a visit. It is located in the east of the country. It is around 13 kilometers long, but only just under one kilometer wide. Lake Cyambwe is also only a few kilometers from the border with Tanzania. Despite its relatively small size, Rwanda is home to almost 8 million people, making it one of the most densely populated countries, which is hardly surprising given that nations such as Mauritania or Algeria are largely deserted.
