Trip to Mission Sainte-Anne in Fernan Vaz (GABON)
The church was designed and built by Gustave Eiffel in Paris and transported in pieces to St. Anne where it was built in 1889. It is a mixture of color and visual contrasts. The dark rust color and simple silhouette of the church nestled in the green palm trees make it worthwhile to visit, be it only for the opportunity of taking a photo. Located off the beaten track on the edge of a lagoon, visitors who approach by the river have their first glimpse of the Mission by the church spire rising above the canopy. One is immediately struck by the surrounding atmosphere of peace and tranquility due in part to the isolation of the site.

Most Visiting Site in Gabon || Top Five || Mew Play
Tourism in Gabon is underdeveloped.Despite this, attractions include beaches, ocean and inland fishing facilities, the falls on the Ogooué River, and the Crystal Mountains.Tourists also come to see the famous hospital founded by Dr. Albert Schweitzer in Lambaréné. Hunting is legal in specific areas from December to September.
#Point_Denis
Point Denis is well known mainly because tourism hasn’t flourished there yet. Though it’s a rapid boat ride from Libreville, it looks like otherworldly. The beach stretches over several kilometers and ends where the Pongara National Park starts. The calm town has wonderful restaurants, tiny boutique hotels, and great water sports opportunities.
#Port_Gentil
Situated on Mandji Island, it isn’t joined to the mainland by road. Port-Gentil is not only eminent for its industrial sector but also famous for the nightlife and casinos. During the day time, be sure to visit the local zoo and St. Louis Church built in the 20th century.
#Akanda National Park
Internationally famed as the nesting ground for one of the biggest populations of guest birds, Akanda National Park is the home of 25% of preserved mangrove in total Africa. The Bantu clan believes that the Mondah forest, within the park, is a holy place where many of their myths and fables were formed.
#Lopé Reserve
Réserve de la Lopé is precisely located on the equatorial. It contains savannah, rolling hills, and rainforest where you will probably locate buffalo, elephants, gorillas, and mandrills. This national park was actually a reserved area established in the 1940s after the Okanda Wildlife Reserve was created. It’s now a listed UNESCO World Heritage Site.
#Makoku and Kongou Falls
Makokou is the capital city of the Ogooué-Ivindo area and the entrance to Kongou waterfalls – Gabon’s own type of Niagara Falls. Situated inside Ivindo National Park, Kongou is certainly a must see with a 60-meter fall and huge theological significance to the locals. The village of Makokou is a bit separated but it can be accessed by air, rail, and river.

Gabon is a country in Western Central Africa. It lies on the Equator, on the Atlantic Ocean coast, between the Republic of the Congo to the south and east, Equatorial Guinea to the northwest and Cameroon to the north.
A small population, as well as oil and mineral reserves have helped Gabon become one of Africa's wealthier countries. The country has generally been able to maintain and conserve its pristine rain forest and rich biodiversity.
Understand[edit]
History[edit]
The earliest inhabitants of the area were Pygmy peoples. They were largely replaced and absorbed by Bantu tribes as they migrated.
In the 15th century, the first Europeans arrived. The nation's present name originates from Gabão, Portuguese for cloak, which is roughly the shape of the estuary of the Komo River close to the capital of Libreville. French explorer Pierre Savorgnan de Brazza led his first mission to the Gabon-Congo area in 1875. He founded the town of Franceville, and was later colonial governor. Several Bantu groups lived in the area that is now Gabon when France officially occupied it in 1885.
In 1910, Gabon became one of the four territories of French Equatorial Africa, a federation that survived until 1959. These territories became independent on August 17, 1960.
Since independence, Gabon has been one of the more stable African countries. Autocratic President Omar Bongo was in power from 1967 until his death in 2009. Gabon introduced a multiparty system and a new constitution in the early 1990s that allowed for a more transparent electoral process and for reforms of governmental institutions. A small population, abundant natural resources, and considerable foreign support have helped make Gabon one of the more prosperous sub-Saharan African countries. Despite being made up of more than 40 ethnic groups, Gabon has escaped the strife afflicting other West African states.
Climate[edit]
Tropical; always hot, humid. During the months of June to September, the climate is a little cooler (20-25°C).
Terrain[edit]
Narrow coastal plain; hilly interior; savannah in east and south. Highest point is Mont Iboundji at 1,575 metres.
Important holidays[edit]
Independence Day: 17 August 1960 (from France)
National holiday: Founding of the Gabonese Democratic Party (PDG), 12 March (1968)
