🇲🇬 Madagascar Diary ⑩

📍 UNESCO World Heritage Site: Royal Hill of Ambohimanga! 🌍 Why It's Special Located 24km east of Antananarivo, this fortified royal complex was the spiritual and political heart of the Merina Kingdom. Includes sacred tombs, royal residences, and ritual sites—still a pilgrimage destination today. Named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001 for its cultural significance. 📸 Visitor Tips 🚫 No photos allowed in sacred areas (respect the rules!). 👟 Wear comfy shoes—the hilltop climb rewards you with panoramic views. 📖 Local guides (50,000 AR) bring the history to life—worth it! ✨ My Take Walking through the weathered wooden gates, you feel centuries of Malagasy royalty whispering in the wind. The energy here is palpable—even if half of it can’t be photographed 😉. #WorldHeritage #SoloTravel #MadagascarUncovered
