Lubomo is the capital of the Niari Province of the Republic of Congo (Congo-Brazzaville for short), located in the southwestern part of the country, about 200 kilometers from the economic center of Pointe-Noire. As an important city in the Niari River Basin, Lubomo has agriculture and trade as its main economic pillars, and the surrounding area is rich in coffee, cocoa, cassava and other crops.
Lubomo is located in a savannah climate zone with distinct dry and rainy seasons and has a population of about 40,000 (2020 estimate), predominantly ethnic Congolese. The urban layout extends along the highway, with relatively simple infrastructure, and is one of the transportation nodes connecting the interior to the port of Pointe-Noire.
The local economy is based on the distribution and primary processing of agricultural products, with a traditional weekly market at the heart of regional trade. Culturally, traditional Bantu rituals and music and dance are preserved, and Catholicism and primitive beliefs coexist. In recent years, the government has been upgrading roads to promote regional connectivity.
Visitors should be aware that the roads are muddy during the rainy season (October-May) and it is recommended to visit during the dry season. The main attractions include the scenery of the Nyali River and handicraft markets, but tourist facilities are more limited, so it is necessary to plan your trip in advance.
