Makak is a small town in the South West Region of Cameroon, about 150 kilometers west of the capital city of Yaoundé, on the edge of the tropical rainforest, surrounded by dense forests and meandering rivers, and is the center of local agriculture and small-scale trade. The climate is hot and humid, the main cash crops include cocoa, coffee and oil palm, and the inhabitants are mostly engaged in traditional farming and handicraft making. As a representative of rural western Cameroon, Makak retains a strong tribal cultural tradition, with Fang and Douala as the local languages, and traditional celebrations such as harvest festivals are held annually to attract tourists from around the region. Despite its relatively simple infrastructure, its unique natural ecology and humanistic flavor make it a window into Cameroon's rural life.
