Surrounded by verdant rainforest-covered mountains and the blue waves of the Atlantic, Freetown is a city unlike any other, with bustling streets, colorful markets and wide sandy beaches just a quick drive from the city centre.
Standing in the center of downtown is the majestic cotton tree, a symbol of freedom said to have been standing since the first arrival of the free settlers. Other attractions include numerous beaches and nightclubs, as well as the Sierra Leone Museum, housing the Ruiter Stone and the original drum of Bai Bureh.
