    Lake Naivasha in Kenya! It started raining as soon as we got on the boat, so the tour guide suggested not to take it. I felt a little regretful! Lake Naivasha in the haze has a unique charm.

    The Hell's Gate in Naivasha is actually a very large wildlife park. The two peaks here stand opposite each other, forming a natural gate, which is known as the Hell's Gate.
