44% of Liberia is covered by large rainforests and the country
is mainly known for its magnificent African masks, fine
woodcarving and special traditional clothing. Liberia is
dominated by the climate of a tropical rainforest. It has a very
high rainfall rate, especially in the period from May to October
inclusive. Liberia has a population of about three million, but
large swathes of the country still remain uninhabited. There are
very few people in the south-east in particular, and most of the
people live along the coast. Welcome to a city of historical
importance, with the famous Providence Island and its deep-
rooted african culture.
