Quiçama National Park

Bengo Province, Angola · built 1957

Quiçama National Park, also known as Kissama National Park (Parque Nacional do Quiçama or Parque Nacional da Quissama), is a national park in northwestern Angola. It is the only functioning national park in all of Angola, with the others being in disrepair due to the Angolan Civil War. The park is approximately 70 km from Luanda, the Angolan capital. The park covers 3 million acres (12, 000 km²), more than twice the size of the U.S. state of Rhode Island. The Portuguese name Quiçama is spelled in English and other languages as Kissama, Kisama or Quicama. The spelling Kissama in English is the closest to the Portuguese phonetic.
