Introducing Rose Hill
Rose Hill, wedged between Beau Bassin and Quatre Bornes in the middle of the Central Plateau conurbation, is virtually a suburb of Port Louis and a major cultural centre for Mauritius. The town sits at the foot of the impressive Corps de Garde mountain and retains a few interesting old buildings from the colonial era. It also has a reputation as a cheap place to shop, particularly for imported Indian textiles.

Most places of interest are strung out along Royal Rd, which is Rose Hill’s main thoroughfare. The intersection with Vandermeersch St marks the town centre, where you’ll find the bus station and the main shopping malls as well as numerous basic restaurants and food stalls. For tiptop Indian snacks, you can’t beat the dhal puris sold by Dewa & Sons (Arab Town market, Royal Rd) to the south of the centre; they’re reputed to be the best on the island.
