Mauritius: A creative spirit

Mauritius, a little tropical gem known for its white sandy beaches, is described as "Indian Ocean Idyll Reimagined" in an article in The Telegraph.

For the author, it is a destination where "the breeze is sweet and warm" and "an island of whispering sugarcane fields, echoes of corsairs, and days lived out in the shade of coconut trees".

The island possesses "a thriving textile industry, jewelry and watch production, free-trade zones, and financial services", making it one of the most competitive economies in Africa with an annual growth rate of over 3%.

The article points out the Apravasi Ghat, a popular historical site in Mauritius known for its rich history of hundreds of thousands of workers being shipped to the island from India and other countries. This has made a significant contribution to the island's multicultural society and diverse cultural heritage.
