Opis:
This new, thoroughly updated third edition of Bradt's Sierra Leone remains the only English-language guide dedicated to this unique West African destination, one of only three countries where the über-elusive pygmy hippo can be found and where coastal mountains and sheltered beaches are the stuff of daydreams and postcards. With Bradt's Sierra Leone you can explore the infamous diamond mines and rainforest-covered mountains; go in search of pygmy hippos or relax on the country's beaches and islands. Offering significantly more coverage than any other guide, it is an ideal companion for tourists, volunteers and international workers alike, and also covers newly declared eco-tourist sites as well as the trans-boundary 'peace park' of Gola Forest National Park, shared with neighbouring Liberia.
This new edition also covers
Freetown's new beach music festival, as well as details of everything from where
to visit rescued chimpanzees to touring the traditional wooden-board homes of
the Krio people, descendants of repatriated slaves from the Americas and
Europe.
Sierra Leone continues to be one
of the best beach destinations in West Africa, and also one of the region's best
trekking destinations, given the varied topography and the presence of Mount
Bintumani, West Africa's highest peak. The country has seen a heartening
recovery since emerging from civil war a decade ago and the Bradt guide is the
first to take stock of the country's post-Ebola travel situation. Sierra Leone
is proudly back on the tourism map for the adventurous, beach-loving,
jungle-exploring, mountain-scaling and curious of heart traveller.
