  3. National Museum, Monuments & Art Gallery

    The small but diverse National Museum, Monuments & Art Gallery is a good way to kill an afternoon in the capital, especially if you're into taxidermy. For those not aroused by stuffed wildlife, there are also a number of ethnographic exhibits on precolonial and colonial history as well as a permanent collection of traditional and modern African and European art.
