Cilaos is a commune situated in a caldera high in the mountains of Réunion, a French overseas department in the Indian Ocean. Located at an elevation of approximately 1,200 meters, the town is nestled within the Cirque de Cilaos, one of three volcanic cirques on the island. The area is known for its dramatic mountain landscapes, thermal springs, and distinctive local culture that blends French, African, and Indian influences.

The name 'Cilaos' comes from the Malagasy word 'Tsilaosa,' meaning 'the place one never leaves.' The town has developed a reputation for its traditional embroidery work, known as "broderie de Cilaos," as well as its local wine production and lentils, which are specific to the region. The cultural heritage of Cilaos is closely tied to its historical development as a thermal resort town and its unique geographic isolation, which has helped preserve many traditional practices.
