I think it is nice to see cities from all around the world and africa too!

I gave it a 7 not so much for the height or density which is not impressive but because the city seems to have a lot of buildings and highrises with African design influences- that is very nice and I wish more Asian and other African cities would integrate more of their local heritage in their buildings instead of building boring western blocks.
Looks internesting and the natural setting seems quite beautiful.

I give it a 4,does anyone know if Yaoundé or Douala is Cameroon's main city?Cameroon unlike most african cities has two principal cities, i believe Yaoundé is the newer purposely built capital.

As a country that is rolling in oil money, I would expect more, but it's nice to see pics of places all over the world.

PS: It looks very humid. Isn't a major rain forest in Cameroon?

well i know cameroon's neighbors have oil, but i don't thinkk they have much i could be wrong though. Also i think Douala is their main city and Yaounda is the newer purposely built capital city

Yaoundé is the political capital while Doula is the economical one, its as simple as that.

I've actually been there, not much to see in terms of skyscrapers or highrises, but still a pretty interesting city to visit, far better than Douala, which, although being far more westernished, left a very hostile impression on me, Yaounde on the other hand was for more friendly, though the smaller towns we visited around the country (but we stayed most of the time in Maroua, in the far north) were far more friendly.
Anyway, I'll give it a 7, just for the sake of it :)
