Kaloum is the bustling peninsula that forms the core of Conakry, hosting the majority of the city's government offices, banks, and the main port. Visitors can stroll along the wide boulevards lined with colonial-era buildings, visit the Presidential Palace (viewable from outside), and explore the busy markets. The district's energy is palpable, with street vendors, honking taxis, and the constant hum of commerce. It's the best place to get a feel for Conakry's daily life and history.
