Getting There

  Start from the Pamplemousses Botanical Garden entrance. Exit the garden and turn left onto the main road (Baldwin Road). Walk straight for about 1.5 kilometers until you reach the roundabout. At the roundabout, take the second exit onto the A1 highway towards Port Louis. Continue on the A1 for approximately 6 kilometers. You will pass through some local shops and residential areas. As you approach Port Louis, keep an eye out for the signs indicating the area of the Sir Seewoosagar Ramgoolam Statue. Once you reach the statue, it will be prominently located near the waterfront, and you should be able to see it from a distance.

• Public Transport (Bus)

  From Pamplemousses, head to the nearest bus stop along the main road. Take any bus heading towards Port Louis. The bus ride will take around 30-40 minutes depending on traffic. Inform the bus driver that you need to get off at the stop closest to the Sir Seewoosagar Ramgoolam Statue or ask fellow passengers for help. Once you arrive in Port Louis, navigate towards the waterfront where the statue is located. It should be a short walk from the bus stop.

• Bicycle

  If you have access to a bicycle, start from the Pamplemousses Botanical Garden entrance. Head left onto Baldwin Road. Continue straight for about 1.5 kilometers, then take the second exit at the roundabout onto the A1 highway towards Port Louis. Maintain a steady pace as you cycle approximately 6 kilometers.
