About Abidjan
Abidjan, the economic capital of Côte d'Ivoire, is a lagoon city of towers and bridges, with a rainforest park inside it and a colonial town nearby.
Abidjan spreads across peninsulas and islands on the Ébrié Lagoon, linked by bridges, with the glass towers of Plateau, the business district, facing the water. Yamoussoukro, inland, is the capital in law, but Abidjan is the larger and busier city. The modern Cathedral of Saint Paul is a landmark of Plateau, and Cocody, to the east, has leafy streets and lagoon-side villas.
