Rhumsiki, likewise spelt Rumsiki and Roumsiki, is a town in the Far North Territory of Cameroon. Rhumsiki is situated in the Mandara Mountains 55 km (34 mi) from Mokolo and 3 km (2 mi) from the fringe with Nigeria. The town is like numerous others in northern Cameroon. The occupants, individuals from the Kapsiki ethnic gathering, live in little houses worked from neighborhood stone and finished with covered rooftops; these homes are scattered all through the town and encompassing valley. By the by, Rhumsiki is one of Cameroon's most prominent vacation destinations and "the most touristic put in northern Cameroon".
The fascination is the encompassing landscape. Gwanfogbe, et al., depict it as "noteworthy", Forlorn Planet as "striking", Unpleasant Aides as "breathtaking"and Bradt Aides as a "relatively lunar scene". Essayist and traveler André Gide composed that Rhumsiki's surroundings are "a standout amongst the most wonderful scenes on the planet." The stupendous impact is made by encompassing volcanic attachments (the leftovers of long-torpid volcanoes), basalt outcroppings, and the Mandara Mountains. The biggest (and most shot) of these stones is Kapsiki Pinnacle, a fitting standing 1,224 m tall.
Rhumsiki has adjusted to the stream of voyagers. Youngsters in the town go about as visit guides, demonstrating guests a few pre-masterminded attractions. Among these are craftspeople, for example, metal forgers, potters, spinners, and weavers; local artists; and the féticheur, a crystal gazer who predicts the future in light of a crab's control of bits of wood.Rhumsiki is currently a standard thing on most vacationer agendas, a reality of which the movement writing opposes. Unpleasant Aides portrays Rhumsiki as "invade" and "spoiled by sorted out tourism", and Desolate Planet calls it "something of a traveler trap." The standard guided voyage through the town drives The Harsh Manual for question its realness: "The interest of the visit is to a great extent to experience the 'genuine' Cameroon, and the implicit blemish is that the more individuals come, the more twisted and stunning life in the town progresses toward becoming."
The Rhumsiki 'plug' is clearly phallic and both generally desolate ladies making penances at its foot, and in the advanced world, offering the inn as a special night goal this has been one of the fundamental highlights of Rhumsiki.
