A delegation of 57 foreign tourists aboard one of the most luxurious trains in the world were enchanted and amazed by the hospitality of the Ovimbundu people, whom they consider communicative, smiling, and welcoming.
Among curiosities, myths, and stories, they visited Doctor António Agostinho Neto Square, the Garden of Culture, the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fátima, the Cathedral, the tanks, the factory of the beer Cuca, and the Benguela Railway (CFB) workshop.
