Although I was very keen on visiting some of Madagascar's beautiful national parks, driving in a taxi-brousse from place to place was not without its pleasures. The highlands from Antananarivo to Ambositra ... and then to Fianarantsoa can be very beautiful themselves, with the rice paddies, the bare rocks on the mountainsides, and the sleepy villages around each corner. There are alot of panoramas and vistas which seem very Malagasy to me... with their distinctive homes, and configurations. Ambositra is a small city which made for a pleasant overnight stay between Antananarivo and Fianarantsoa. I especially liked the roses and the morning fog, which gave the place a certain ambience.
