Beautiful Kenyan Destinations

Situated at the heart of the land of milk and honey, not to mention the tall, straight bamboo trees, the butterfly of Africa, my beautiful Kenya,  is the magnificent county, the Machakos county. Machakos means "the land of endless mysteries" and true to the connotation, this land is full of wonders and conundrums.  Today we will explore the mystical hill that defies gravity, the  Kyamwilu hill. The hill is situated along the Machakos-Kangundo road, just a few kilometers past Machakos town. It offers a perfect spot for the motorist who wish to save some few milliliters of the expensive fuel (considering the current status of the economy) as for about 100 meters uphill, one can go on  free gear. Weird as it may sound, this is the reality at this mystical hill.   Initially this place was called Kyaume (meaning men in   Kamba ) as there used to live two men. One called Kyalo and the other called Mwilu, these two men shared one woman as their wife in marriage

Right from branching off from Nairobi-Kisumu highway one cannot avoid being mesmerized by the beautiful and amazing sceneries along the Kakamega -Malava road. Beautiful land? NO! Beautiful would be an understatement when it comes to describing this land. It is just heart-melting. Lovely!  One of the spectacular sceneries in this land is the  The Crying  Stone of Ilesi . For anyone at the foot of this phenomenon, the most striking feature is that it resembles a gowned figure, perpetually in tears flowing from 'head to toe' — an image spiced-up by myth and folkfore. To any visitor, the stone is just another tourist attraction site, but for tourism enthusiasts, the story behind this amazing feature, as well as the lives of  Isukha poeple who live at its base, is not just beautiful but exciting to listen to.  Stay in touch for more on this wonder-ful land.........
