Oyala is the capital of Equatorial Guinea's Kié Ntem Province, located in the south-central region of the country's mainland, about 300 kilometers from the capital city of Malabo (on the island of Bioko). As the centerpiece of Equatorial Guinea's "New Cities Plan", Oyala is being developed as an administrative and economic center, with government offices, commercial and residential areas planned to relieve the population pressure on Malabo. The local economy is based on agriculture, producing tropical crops such as cacao and coffee, while the neighboring energy industry, based on rich oil resources, has led to infrastructure development. Oyala is located in a tropical rainforest climate zone, with an average annual temperature of about 26°C. The culture is a blend of tribal traditions such as the Fang and Spanish colonial heritage, and the official language is Spanish. Although the city is currently small, its strategic location and development plans make it an important hub for the mainland region of Equatorial Guinea.
