Description

The North-West Region of Cameroon is one of the ten regions of the country. It is located in the western part of Cameroon and is bordered by the West Region to the south and Nigeria to the west. The capital of the North-West Region is Bamenda, which is known for its vibrant culture and rich history.

The region is predominantly inhabited by the Grassfield people, who have a rich tradition of craftsmanship, particularly in pottery and weaving. Agriculture is a significant part of life in the North-West Region, with farmers growing crops such as maize, potatoes, and beans, taking advantage of the fertile volcanic soil.

Tourism is also a growing sector due to the region's beautiful landscapes, including the scenic Mount Cameroon and the picturesque waterfalls. Visitors are drawn to the natural beauty and cultural heritage, making the North-West Region an important area for eco-tourism and cultural experiences.
