Antananarivo, the capital of Madagascar, was founded in the early 17th century by a Malagasy king who conquered several villages in the area. The king named it Antananarivo, which means “town of 1000” for the 1000 soldiers he left to guard the city. Known by locals as Tana, Antananarivo is built on hilly terrain, and is known for its open- air markets and many vistas. The Rova, or Queen’s Place, is built on the highest hill in the city and as such offers just such a view of Antananarivo. The restored Minister’s Palace, located close to the Rova, offers a glimpse of the ancient history of the city. The Parc National de Montagne D'Ambre is a popular destination, showcasing the flora and fauna of Madagascar, including lemurs and many species of chameleons.
