  1. The Soarano Train Station was built during the colonial period and was one of the most important modes of transportation at the time. The rail station used to be the main one in the capital city, but it is now largely used for business purposes, and it is rare to see anyone traveling through it.


    You can go there to see how things were done in the past and how the old station appears now, as well as to see the massive building that used to be where tickets were sold and where everyone waited for the train.

  2. Another one on the list of the most beautiful historical sites in Madagascar is Queen’s Palace. The queen of Madagascar was famed for her opulence, and she was the first person to battle the French colonialists until she was defeated.


    When compared to the king's palace, the queen's palace pales in comparison, despite the fact that they are both within walking distance of one other. The Queen’s Palace is situated on Antananarivo's tallest hill and was designed by a German architect, making it a one-of-a-kind attraction for visitors. Every room in the palace is packed with glasses, and you can see your reflection in every one of them.


    Many of Madagascar's royals lived here, and they are all buried at the royal hill's graveyard. The palace is surrounded by numerous tiny buildings, which gives it an authentic character when compared to its surroundings. The magnificent history that can be seen in the location, as well as the anecdotes told by the tour guides, make the visit worthwhile.

  3. This is in the capital city of Antananarivo, Madagascar capital city. Markets can be found in this area, and on either side of the L'Avenue de L'Independence street, you will find well-decorated colonial houses that will remind you or show you of the colonial times, and for those who did not experience it, you will get to know how the colonialists lived and also have the opportunity to purchase some merchandise from the meat and produce the dream.


    There are additional stair cases where you may rest, although this is only possible in the evenings because it is always packed during the day, and you must carry a picnic basket while trying to observe the colonial mansions on either side.

  4. Previously, the Ambohitsorohitra served as the residence of Madagascar's president. The army invaded the Palace during the 2009 coup, and no one has stayed there since. The army attacked the presidential palace because they wanted to overthrow the president, and when he escaped, the palace became something of a museum because the army had promised to attack it again if he returned to the same location, which is why the president no longer lives here because the army had promised to raid if he ever started living there again.


    The Palace is now only for show, and tours of the palace are being given to visitors and residents. This site is one of the most beautiful historical sites in Madagascar.

  5. The Madagascar king built the Mahandrihono palace, which was intended for his children. Within the Palace's stone walls are numerous other modest houses where each of the king's children used to live so that he could readily oversee them and prevent a coup against his realm.


    The monarch was a polygamous guy with a large family, which is why he built the Mahandrihono Palace so that all of his children could dwell in the same compound and be readily watched.
