We spent ten nights in Nanyuki, in order to write an enthusiastic review of Sweetwaters in the Mount Kenya region of Kenya.
Sweetwaters Tented Camp is in a class of its own. Abounding with wildlife, designed to supply a beguiling mix of under canvas ambiance and uncompromising luxury, it has long been the most popular retreat of wilderness and safari lovers alike.
Incredible experience with 15 giraffes visiting the waterhole immediately across from our tent - less than 100 feet away! With giraffes, warthogs, zebras and waterbucks visiting every day this was a superb break from the dusty game drives. Alert staff, excellent food and plush tents made for a remarkable vacation. The infrequent lion roar in the middle of the night added a particularly special "extra!
While at Sweetwaters the staff kindly told us about the new Lily Pond Arts Centre on the equator in Nanyuki.
The workers at Sweetwaters were adamant that we made a trip to the massive art gallery, as it displays affordable contemporary art from East Africa's top up to date artists, away from the hustle and bustle of town life.
You can choose to either suck up the atmosphere of this untroubled and special African arts place, or meet the "Artists in Residence". The Art Gallery houses art graduates from art schools in Nairobi, Kenya who are on full-time, long term placements at the arts centre, producing and showing new reasonable art works.
This new art gallery in Nanyuki, aims to operate as a springboard for young artists to launch their art careers, whilst allowing safari visitors to buy original pieces of art.
Safari guests can also enjoy a healthy lunch on a deck, overlooking a large lily pond.
With the great Mount Kenya Mountain as a background, art visitors can also enjoy watching the white egret, hunting the frogs in the pool!
What Kenyan safari guests find dazzling is that the equator slices clean through the middle of this Arts Centre. This means that you can view electrifying African art in both the Southern Hemisphere and the Northern Hemisphere!
This new Arts Centre in Nanyuki, has just installed a new equator sculpture, the Wish Globe, which is installed exactly at 0000000. Everybody writes down their wishes and then hangs them onto the "Wish Globe".
The latest Arts Centre is also a one-off chance to buy special hand- crafted African gifts like beaded sandals, recycled flip flop toys, African masks, Glass chimes, Kenyan metal geckos and many more unusual African present ideas.
