Many are also home to some of the city's most vulnerable residents.

BBC Africa Eye has been there to investigate, and we hear more from their reporter.

For nearly five years, Burundians have endured crippling shortages of fuel, electricity, and clean water. What is behind the triple crisis that is paralysing most of the country?
