Features of the park
One of the favorite places for family rest is not only the guests of the country, but also local residents is Domain-le-Pai. The park is located near the capital of Mauritius - Port Louis, in the foothills of the Moca ridge. At the time of the French yoke, a sugar plantation was broken here, on which slaves labored. Today, the territory of 3 thousand acres is occupied by the Domain-le-Pai theme park, which is the center of the country's cultural heritage.
