Rwanda

Rwanda,[a] officially the Republic of Rwanda,[b] is a landlocked country in East Africa. Known as the "Land of a Thousand Hills" for its high elevation and rolling terrain, its geography is dominated by mountains in the west and savanna in the southeast. The largest and most notable lakes are mainly in the western and northern regions of the country, and several volcanoes that form part of the Virunga volcanic chain are primarily in the northwest. The climate is considered tropical highland, with two rainy seasons and two dry seasons each year. Its capital and largest city is Kigali, located at the centre of the country, at 1,567 metres above sea level.

“Since its remarkable recovery, Rwanda has positioned itself as East Africa's premium gorilla destination. Volcanoes National Park offers the closest gorilla encounters in Africa, while Nyungwe Forest hosts 13 primate species including chimpanzees. Kigali is Africa's cleanest capital and a model of sustainable urban development.”
