Namibia is a country of contrasting landscapes, from the world's oldest desert to rugged mountains, dense woodland and lily-carpeted waterways. For the visitor, its top attractions include world-famous Etosha National Park, sanctuary to thousands of typical plains animals; Namib-Naukluft Park, a fascinating desert area of endless gravel plains, a vast dune sea and rugged mountains; Fish River Canyon, the second largest canyon in the world; and Swakopmund, the country's prime coastal resort, with its beautifully preserved colonial buildings.
