"Traditional Dancers - Intore Dancers"
Every night, a local group of dancers goes to a grassy knoll that overlooks the Virunga Volcanoes and the Ruhondo and Bulera lakes. The members of the group come from villages close to the Virunga Lodge. The dances they perform were
traditionally for the Tutsi kings, who ruled over Rwandabefore colonial times. The warriors would tell of their victories with a wonderful dance that involves intricate steps, loud cries and fast shaking of their heads.
