Located in the country's central highlands, the Midlands of Mauritius (Moka) is one of the most fascinating areas of Mauritius in terms of both nature and people. With its rolling terrain and pleasant climate, surrounded by rolling sugar cane fields and lush mountains, it is known as the "backyard of Mauritius". The region is home to the renowned SSR Botanical Gardens, an eco-enthusiast's destination for rare tropical plants and flowers, and the fringes of the Black River National Park, where you can explore the pristine forests and waterfalls on foot. The Midlands also has a strong academic scene with a concentration of top Mauritian institutions such as the University of Mauritius. With a blend of African, Indian and European cultures, traditional bazaars and colonial architecture, Midrand is an ideal destination for travelers to experience the natural and cultural heritage of Mauritius, while experiencing the serenity of rural life and the clash of cultures.
