The map
About this Kigali map poster
Kigali is built across a series of hills and ridges in the centre of Rwanda. Main roads follow the ridgelines, winding along the tops of the hills, while wetlands and farmland fill the valleys below. On a map, the city looks like a network of branches, dense on the heights and open in the lowlands.
The central business district sits on one of the main hills, with Mount Kigali rising to the southwest and the Nyabugogo valley to the north. A Kigali map poster captures this unusual structure, where terrain shapes every neighbourhood and the streets curve rather than forming a grid.
Kigali is known for its clean streets and orderly planning, supported by Umuganda, a monthly day of community work. The Kigali Genocide Memorial at Gisozi honours the victims of 1994, and the city's growth since then reflects Rwanda's remarkable recovery.

Valley wetlands
Low-lying wetlands fill the spaces between hills, appearing as open areas that separate the denser districts on the slopes.
Mount Kigali
The mountain rises southwest of the centre, where the street network thins out and the slopes remain largely green.

Why Kigali
A map that means something
Kigali is a city of hills and new beginnings, and its map is unlike any other capital's. A poster suits Rwandans at home and abroad, as well as visitors, volunteers and professionals who have spent meaningful time on its ridges.
