Liberia sits on the West African coast, a country of dense rainforests, old mountains, and places that tell the story of its particular past. Visitors find national parks like Sapo and Gola, where chimpanzees and rare birds live in forests largely untouched by roads. Mount Wuteve and the Nimba Mountains offer walks through green landscapes, while waterfalls like Kpatawee drop into the forest shade. Along the coast, beaches like Ce Ce Beach and the surfer town of Robertsport with its old Cape Mount Lighthouse draw people looking for waves and quiet. Lakes such as Lake Piso and Blue Lake show the country's calmer side. In the capital Monrovia, Providence Island and the National Museum recall the founding of Liberia by freed slaves from America. The crumbling Ducor Hotel rises above the city, a reminder of boom and decline. Religious buildings like the Sacred Heart Cathedral and the Central Mosque of Matadi reflect the mix of faiths in the country. Markets like Waterside buzz with trade and conversation, while art studios like Nyamee show local creativity at work.
