Yaoundé au Cameroun

Yaoundé, political capital of Cameroon

These two nicknames: “the city with the Seven Hills” and “the town with wild boars” describe it perfectly.

Although urbanized, it flirts not only with the surrounding nature but also with age-old traditions, such as the famous period of the hunt for wild boars! Yaounde is certainly a singular city, which will not leave the traveller insensitive.

Surprise Your Taste Buds
