A Walk Through the Past
This Museum brings to light the development of Rwandan culture throughout history. I would highly recommend this Museum as a short stop during a trip in Rwanda. Every single aspect of this museum is unbelievable. From the outside of the Museum to each gallery, you will see outrageous beautiful details. It is very educational and is comprised of 7 display galleries. Any questions you have regarding early history of the country, art or archaeological artifacts displayed, or how such a rich culture was born, will be answered through visual aids and well-written descriptions. I would not recommend this museum if you are traveling with young kids because it is so highly informational. At the end of your tour, definitely stop and get some souvenirs at a GREAT price!

Worth a Quick Detour
We stopped here en route to Nyungwe from Kigali. Glad we stopped by - it's an interesting place. It's not huge - you can get around it in about a hour or so. The woven objects are especially impressive. I think the entrance fee was around $12 which we paid by card. A good way to break up the journey. Worth a look.
