Maasai Mara, also known as the Maasai Mara National Reserve, is a game reserve in southwestern Kenya that is known for its rich wildlife and stunning scenery. It is named after the Maasai people who inhabit the area, and the Mara River that flows through it.
The Maasai Mara is home to a diverse range of wildlife, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, and many species of birds. It is particularly famous for the annual wildebeest migration, which takes place between July and October each year. During this time, millions of wildebeest, zebra, and other grazing animals move from the Serengeti in Tanzania to the Maasai Mara in search of water and fresh grazing.
The Maasai Mara is also a popular destination for tourists who come to experience the wildlife and learn about the Maasai culture. There are a number of lodges and campsites located within the reserve, as well as opportunities for guided safaris, hot air balloon rides, and cultural tours.
