Luanda, Angola

by kathyceo - last update: Mar 27, 2004

My husband and I went to Angola because he had lived there for almost thirty years. He had to leave due to the civil war, and wanted to return to 'go home'. Although we are glad that we went, it was a sad homecomming.

Pros:"You can picture what Luanda was like pre-war, beautiful bay, lovely island, perfect setting."
Cons:"People from all over the country escaping to a safe city, an influx of some three million people, who had been used to a rural lifestyle, have clogged the city which has no infrastructure to cope."
In A Nutshell:"There is nothing for a tourist to do--the city is filthy, there are some expensive restaurants but you need a car to get to them. Business is the only reason to go for the time being."
