Nyeri is one of the nicest places to visit in Kenya and a must-visit for anyone who wants to understand the history of Kenya.

Nyeri town is the headquarters of Nyeri County, located at the central highlands of Kenya. It’s one of the oldest towns in Kenya located about 150 km north of Nairobi, the capital city.

The town, which was established during the colonial era has a deep history and cultural heritage site worth learning about.

Nyeri had plenty of attractions, but it’s also a great place to wander with a lot of things to do in the highlands.

Nyeri is an easy place to visit due to its proximity to Nairobi. It’s possible to have a day trip to Nyeri from either Nairobi or Nakuru, but I recommend staying longer to explore more of what this great place has to offer.

This isn’t just because there are plenty of things to do in Nyeri but also because there are some great accommodation options available at affordable prices.
