Kigali

Kigali offers several ways to explore Rwanda’s present and its recent past. Gikondo Expo Ground connects the city with trade fairs and exhibitions, while Inema Arts Center introduces contemporary Rwandan art. The Kigali Genocide Memorial provides a place to remember the victims of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi and learn about its history. These places serve very different purposes: allow time for reflection at the memorial and check organisers’ information before planning around an exhibition. Start with the three places below, then explore the full Kigali directory for more stories and landmarks.
