Douala
Douala is the largest city and the commercial centre of Cameroon.
The city is located on the banks of the Wouri River, the two sides linked by Bonaberi Bridge.
The first Europeans to visit the area were the Portuguese in about 1472. At the time, the estuary of Wouri River was known as the Rio dos Camarões (Shrimp River). By 1650, it had become the site of a town formed by immigrants, said to have arrived from Congo, who spoke the Duala language. During the 18th century it was the center of the transatlantic slave trade.
