Rift Valley Province, Administrative province in central Kenya
The province extends across the Great Rift Valley tectonic plate boundary, featuring numerous lakes, volcanic formations, and varied ecological zones from arid to fertile lands.
Archaeological discoveries in the Tugen Hills contain fossils preserved in lava flows dating from 14 to 4 million years ago, documenting early human ancestry.
The Maasai community maintains their traditional pastoralist practices throughout the region, herding cattle across the grasslands following seasonal patterns.
The capital city Nakuru functions as a central transportation hub, connecting the province through improved road networks that facilitate agricultural trade and tourism.
Lake Bogoria National Reserve contains geysers and hot springs along its western shore, creating specific conditions where thousands of flamingos gather to feed.
