Bois Saint-Anastasie

Bois Saint-Anastasie is a large public garden in Yaoundé II featuring walking paths, benches, and resting areas surrounded by native and exotic plants. The grounds include zones for exploration, art installations, and an on-site restaurant for visitors.

The garden began as an agricultural research center designed to develop and test farming methods. Over time, it evolved into a space focused on protecting endangered plants and teaching visitors about conservation.

Sculptures throughout the space display local wildlife and figures important to Cameroon's cultural story. Visitors encounter these artworks as they walk, integrating art into their experience of the gardens.

The garden is open daily and offers plenty of paths for walking and spots to rest. Wear comfortable shoes, and be aware that paths can become slippery after rain.

The Ekozoa River runs through the grounds and dramatically changes the landscape during rainy seasons. The swelling waters create temporary shifts in how the space appears and feels to visitors.
