Escape to Abuja!
Abuja is the capital city of Nigeria and is one of the ten most populous cities in the country. Since its development and incorporation as the capital city of Nigeria more than two decades ago, it has seen a rapid increase in its population and development initiatives. Owing to it being a planned city, Abuja is relatively well organized and has several locations of interest for all visitors. The most eye-catching is Zuma rock, a monolith to the north of the city that stands 725 meters (2379 feet) above its surroundings. Most of the city’s religious, commercial, administrative, and sporting structures are fine works of modern architecture, giving away the fact that Abuja is a new and purpose-built city.
