Kigali, Rwanda

A capital rebuilt clean and orderly enough to be the model for the whole continent, a genocide memorial that tells its history without flinching, and coffee grown on the hills right at the edge of town.

The best time to visit Kigali is Jun–Sep, Dec–Feb, when typical daytime highs reach about 27°C (80°F).
