Cities to Visit
A. Kadia
This busy city has developed beside the main river which divides the
central commercial district into two parts. Although you will find the main
offices of many international companies, you can still ride on a water taxi and
visit the side streets which sell colorful locally-made clothes and crafts.
B. Drummore
This is one of the worlds cleanest and most modem cities. There are
lots of top- class hotels offering a range of international dishes. It is sunny all
year- round. Traffic is not a problem on the roads in and around the city, but
travel is limited outside the main city area as it is mainly desert.
C. Noien
This is a cultural centre with 33 museums and galleries, many attached
to colleges and universities. It is not a historical city but it contains some
interesting buildings, including the Post Office, which has a silver roof. It has
noisy markets selling everything from antiques to plants.
D. Polatika
The streets of this city are full both day and night. It is built on a river
and the best way to see it is on a tourist boat which passes the beautiful old
buildings. The city is starting to grow and has just opened its first department
stores.
E. Harisetor
This famous city has been on the siimc site for over a thousand years.
Old and new exist together and there isn't the tast pace of most cities. The
streets are wide and well-kept with plenty of trees. Search carefully and you
will find some outdoor markets and food stalls in this peaceful environment.
F. Lotten
This is a regional centre for trade and tourism and is completely 'up-to-
date'. People who live in this city come from many different parts of the world
and so there is an excellent choice of restaurants. There is a wonderful
transport system, and modern department stores.
G. Foforon
There are plenty of tours to take from the city and visitors can go to
mountains, farms and villages. This small city has changed little over time and
its streets and markets are still crowded and noisy.
H. Quinter
There is a lot of modem painting and sculpture in this relatively new city
where many nationalities have come together. The galleries are well hidden
though, and not easy to get to by public transport - This is mainly used for
getting people in and out of the business centre where there are many office
blocks.
