Its capital is Bujumbura.Traditional drumming of karyenda is an important part of Burundian cultural heritage, as indicated by the world-famous Royal Drummers of Burundi. Traditional dance often accompanies the drumming, which is frequently seen in celebrations and family gatherings. Some Burundian artisans have special songs to accompany different stages of their work.Burundian cuisine is a reflection of the varied geography of the country: Burundi is located in Central Africa on a territory of mountains, savannas, agricultural fields, forests located near rivers and water points. Agriculture is spread over 80% of the country's surface. It includes coffee, tea, maize, beans and cassava. Thanks to these characteristics, Burundi cuisine is very representative of African culinary culture, because it includes beans, which are the basis of Burundian cuisine, exotic fruits, mainly plantains, sweet potatoes, cassava, peas. and cereals, such as corn and wheat. Burundian food is low in meat, because livestock is a secondary activity. However, there are some dishes of goat and sheep meat. The cow is considered a sacred animal and is not consumed.

Burundian cuisine is based on homemade food, using homemade utensils used for drinking, transporting water and storing cereals.
