NYERI COUNTY: In 1939 after his retirement, writer, artist and the founder of the International Scouting Movement Robert Baden-Powell moved to a cottage he had commissioned in Nyeri and lived in the single-roomed house he named Paxtu.
The cottage, which was incorporated into Outspan Hotel, now serves as a scouting museum.
