Cameroon is bordered by Nigeria, Chad, Central African Republic, Republic of Congo, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea and the Gulf of Guinea. The terrain of the country is reminiscent of many other parts of Africa. Its mountains are similar to those of Rwanda, the grasslands in the northern part of the country evoke the savannas in Tanzania, its southern rain forests and jungles are somewhat like the Congo's, its volcanic highlands are akin to those surrounding the Great Rift Valley, and its beaches are reminiscent of those of the Seychelles. Especially in the mountainous north, the land is visually stunning.
