Libreville

Libreville is the capital of Gabon. It is a very posh city and offers lots of attractions that are hard to find in the neighboring countries or in the countryside. Golf, tennis, horseback riding, bowling, squash, shpping centres, sailing. If you need a break from the adventurous traveling most of Central Africa offers you, you have picked the rights spot.

Be sure to bring some cash, howver, because Libreville is not a cheap place to go.

The boulevard the l'Independance runs along the water and is your primary point of orientation in town. The heart of the city is between the presidential palace and the Novotel.

Things not to be missed include the presidential palace (posh posh posh), the Egilse St.Michel (best on sunday morning; the carved columns are great) and the Musee des Arts et Traditions (masks, musical instruments etc.).
