Inscribed as a World Heritage Site in 2008, Mona Hill has the pristine beauty of the whole island, in addition to basalt rocks, there are sheltered sandy bays, hidden waterfalls and many traditional fishing villages. Location and beauty The Mauna Mountain is located on the peninsula in the southwest of Mauritius. It is a basalt rock mountain with a height of about 556 meters. Behind the beautiful coastline in the southwest of Mauritius, Mauna Mountain is always the first scenery that catches the eyes of tourists. History Mona Hill was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 2008, and the reason for its fame can be traced back to the 19th century. The centuries of colonial rule in Mauritius have affected the slaves here, and after the abolition of slavery Later, on February 1, 1835, the local police went to find the slaves who were hiding in the Mona Mountains and wanted to inform them of their freedom, but the slaves regarded them as arresting their own team and killed the policemen. Many slaves who knew that the catastrophe was imminent randomly committed suicide by jumping off the cliff on the Mona Mountain, which was embarrassing. Mona Mountain has since become a symbol of the abolition of slavery in Mauritius, and the cliffs that the slaves once jumped off are now full of green mountains and pavilions.
