best places to visit in cameroon
Yaoundé
Yaoundé is the capital of Cameroon and the second-largest city in the country after the port city Douala. It lies in the Centre Region of the nation at an elevation of about 750 meters above sea level.
The city is neatly planned to be spread over seven hills which result to the numerous buildings in the city being separated by stretches of lush green and rising terrain. In addition to its layout, the city is clean and safe with plenty of attractions to visit. The 1970’s government buildings which look fairly unusual here will certainly appeal to culture buffs. Given the central location of Yaoundé it is also a perfect city to include in any tour of the country.
Limbé
Limbé (known as Victoria from 1858 to 1982) is a seaside city in the South-West region of Cameroon. The city lies on the slopes of Mount Cameroon, an active volcanic mountain, and its black sand beaches make Limbe one of the most popular coastal towns among Western tourists.
The Limbé Botanical Gardens in the city are a great place to learn about the nature and plants in the area before exploring the nearby waterfalls and national park. The mountain itself has a summit height of over 4,000 meters and is, therefore, a serious challenge to hike. However, walks for novices are still possible around the base of the mountain without making a full ascent. If you are a lover of nature and wildlife, then Limbé is a place you would certainly appreciate.
