Rwanda, also known as the Land of Thousand Hills, is one of Africa’s fastest growing countries.

In 2018, as a way to increase tourism, President Paul Kagame’s regime made some bold decisions like the £30 million sponsorship deal with English club Arsenal.

To match up to tourists trooping in, local artisans are also upping their game and manufacturing high-quality goods that are unique and mostly only available in Rwanda.

What is a vacation without purchasing a few indigenous items to remind you of the country visited?

Here are a few items worth picking up on your next trip to Rwanda.
