Luanda
Luanda’s bay is the illustrated postcard of a city that looks to the future. While still recovering from a difficult past, it counts with the typical african joy to help push things forward. Book a flight to Luanda.
Home to unique landscape and obvious contrasts, the capital of Angola is a growing business centre. And one of the most expensive in the world.
Go beyond the skyscrapers
A former portuguese colony, Luanda has several marks evoking the past. The fortress of São Miguel is only one of them – transformed nowadays into a Central Museum of Armed Forces. In the downtown area, the unmistakable Iron Palace is believed to be designed by Gustave Eiffel. And the baroque Sé Cathedral is one of the city’s main spot, with more than 300 years of existence.
Find the best sunset
Which might be seen from Miradouro da Lua, outside of Luanda, with a great view over the cliffs by the sea. Or the Mussulo bay, closer to the city, where coconut trees and warm water decorate the beach sand. At night, there’s no escape from taking a walk on the promenade. Or heading to Luanda’s island, where dinner is always more fun!
