The oldest and most attractive part of town is the pedestrian Haute-Ville (known as Tanana Ambony in Malagasy). It's famed for its architecture – two-storey brick houses with steep roofs, balconies and tumbling plants – which dates back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. A stroll (or climb) around the cobbled streets here offers great views of the town and surrounding countryside. There are six churches on this small hill alone, including the imposing Ambozontany Cathedral.
