Rwamagana

Rwamagana is the capital of the Rwamagana District and Rwanda's Eastern Province. In 2015, it was home to about 47,000 people.

Understand
The city is primarily defined by two roads: the main east-west route and a spur to the south. The main market and the Banque de Kigali are located on this artery, while the city's two petrol stations, taxi-bus parking lots, and post office are on the east-west road. At the western end, there is a large church.

Get in
Rwamagana is about 50 km (31 miles) east of Kigali on RN3, an improved road leading to Tanzania. It is 100 km from the Tanzania border at Rusumo.
