Tulear's colonial style buildings, grand lanes and innumerable multi-coloured [[rickshaw]]s (pousse pousse) make a lasting impression on its visitors. Here locals prefer rickshaw transport over motor cars. The result is an unusually unpolluted city for its size and population, which makes Tulear a town well worth visiting and exploring for a couple of days.
