Transcription

Name

Some sources now refer to the city itself as Musanze, after the district in which it lies within.[3] This has to do with the adopted policy of renaming Rwanda cities, which was done to eliminate memories of the past and to install new administrations in the country.[citation needed]

Geography

Ruhengeri lies near the twin lakes of Lake Burera and Lake Ruhondo and is the gateway city to Volcanoes National Park and the famous mountain gorillas in the north-western part of the country.

The city's proximity to the Volcanoes National Park has made it a popular tourist destination with several restaurants and hotels mainly aimed at visitors to the national park.

Notable institutions

Ruhengeri is also home to the Institute of Applied Sciences (INES-Ruhengeri).[4] INES-Ruhengeri was established in 2003 in collaboration with the Catholic Diocese of Ruhengeri.[5]

The city is served by the Ruhengeri Airport.[6]
