If there is one place you absolutely must visit in Kinshasa, it’s this one of sure: Lola Ya Bonobo, the great sanctuary for Bonobos, a species of apes that, like the chimpanzees, is closely related to humans! Due to environmental pressures and poaching, the Bonobos are an endangered species - a situation that led to the creation of this wildlife reservation whose aim is to protect these friendly creatures. The name of both the sanctuary and its organisation - Lola Ya Bonobo - means “Bonobo Paradise” in Lingala, one of the main languages spoken in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
