Soavinandriamanitra Culture Park is a small, relatively unknown park near Ambohimanga. From the royal hill of Ambohimanga it is a 45 minutes walk along a dirt road to the park. Although the park seems a bit unremarkable, it is actually a place full of history!

Back in the old times the location served as a refuge for King Andrianampoinimerina before taking power. Protected by three circular walls made of laterite brickstones not only Andrianampoinimerina felt save, although Queen Ranavalona I choose the place for storing gunpowder. Today the location is transformed into a ecotourism park to revive the place.
