Opis

Cameroon possesses enormous tourism potentials and yet little is known about its potential, as a country or nation with over two hundred and fifty ethnic groups and varied languages this has come to confirm the fact that it is a diversity hop in Africa. Culture and tourism have a mutually beneficial relationship which can strengthen the attractiveness and competitiveness of regions and countries. Culture is increasingly an important element of the tourism product, which also creates distinctiveness in a crowded global marketplace. Some authorities in Cameroon especially the Government Delegate of the Limbe City Council has taken the bold step to showcase the cultural diversity of its municipal and in one of the Limbe festival of arts and culture (FESTAC) edition Mr Motanga asserted "we have unshakeably resolve to make Limbe FESTAC become not only a strong symbol but a leading and reference festival in Cameroon and beyond our borders".
