Why would one want to travel to Madagascar ?


what could one expect there in way of different culture, foods, and best places to see and go...

One of the main reasons to visit Madagascar is its wildlife. 60 percent of plant and animal species found in Madagascar are endemic (that is only to be found in Madagascar, nowhere else in the world). but many of these species are endangered and are usually only found in protected areas. therefore Madagascar national parks are the main attraction of the island.

The mixed origins of Malagasy (the name for the people of Madagascar) has produced an interesting set of cultures that draws from southeast Asia, India, Africa, and the Middle East.

Places of interest in Antananarivo and Nossy Be:

Ambohimanga: The former royal capital and its palace on a steep hill offer stunning views overlooking rice terraces. Attraction type: Historic village; Flea/street market.

Tsimbazaza Zoo

Analakely Market: Colorful fruits and vegetables vie with fish and even grilled lizards at this frenetic outdoor market. Attraction type: Flea/street market.

Open-air markets: Andravoahangy,: Attraction type: Flea/street market

Queens Palace burned out: Attraction type: Castle

Well, Madagascar is an excellent place for ecotourism and those interested in wildlife. There are a variety of species found only in Madagascar.

Their culture is unique, because the Malagasy are descendants of Indonesians and Malaysians. You can read about the people here:
