TOUCHDOWN
Tricycles are the main
means of transport around the city.

unique: they’re inclined at an angle of up
to 40
°
,
which allows them to negotiate
the exceptionally hilly terrain.

Start your day with a visit
to Manga Falls where you can swim
and relax in natural spring water. In the
afternoon, go shopping at the C3 Mall.
Then, drop by the city plaza at 6pm for
the daily dancing fountain show. Be sure
to ride our famous tricycles!
