Nlessi is the cosmopolitan district par excellence. Its very name, evoking English influence, tells of the centuries of trade on the coast. It was here that trading posts flourished, where languages crossed like the currents of the estuary.
The narrow streets of Nlessi keep the trace of old warehouses and the homes of wealthy merchant families. It is a living, noisy district, where one feels the energy of a city that has always looked towards the distant horizon.
