In the colonial period they called the capital of Belgian Congo Kin-la belle… Not much left! Few shaded streets cose to the grand river – some villas locked around by high fenced walls…
The highlight for me was Sta Anna Catholic Mission ) escape from the noise and ever)present police /keep your camera well hidden in the bag/
Todays Kin is crowded dusty and polluted 8-million metropolis!
To be there once and to see is enough.
Some 25 km from the town I visited rare bonobo monkey sanctuary /entry 5 USD/! I was working hard to get for you best possible pictures! Then alfa-male big bonobo throw on me and a camera a big portion of the sand from the distance of 2 m! They did not warn me about such a danger. Excuses came too late…
Ca you imagine that the 10 km car ride from the central bouleard 30 Juin to the hotel can take in the evening more then 2 hours in a smog ) thats Kin la Belle!
