Friends,
E
very once in long time you come across
a person or a place that is nothing
short of mind-blowing in its beauty. In
our lead story this issue, we bring you one
such place: Rwiza Village will undoubtedly
take your breath away. We share with you
the owner’s interesting philosophy on ‘Good
neighborliness’ and how he is attempting to
thrive in business by working together with
the local community.
We also introduce you to Rwanda’s
National Ethnographic Museum and tell
you the story of Hotel Faucon where a racist
establishment was put in line by an angry
king.
In our Burundi section, we bring you-straight
from the president himself- an invitation to
all golfers and lovers of the game to pay a
visit to the Bujumbura Golf Club. Trust me;

you will love playing on this tranquil course.
Finally, we introduce you to Gitega town,
fondly known as ‘Burundi’s second city’. Set
high up in the hills, it is a beehive of activity,
with plenty of interesting tourist spots and
a luxurious yet affordable hotel near the city
centre- Tropitel-Gitega Hotel. Come take a
ride with us as we explore one of Burundi’s
most exciting towns.
In case you have any comments, complaints
or queries, please reach us on any of our
contacts listed to the left of this page.
We hope you enjoy reading this issue of
the Eye Magazine as much as we enjoyed
putting it together for you.
