Other popular places in Angola include Benguela, which is where the beautiful desert beaches of Baia Azul are situated, and the Benguela Railroad, which offers breataking views of the local scenery as it travels across the country. Those really looking to get away from it all head to Kwanza Sul and enjoy the Conde Hot Springs and Bing Waterfalls.
