Guinea was once ruled by one of the most oppressive regimes in Africa, but these days the country exudes a marked energy and growing economic vitality. High on the country's list of attractions is the vibrancy of its cultural traditions, particularly in music and dance, and its natural beauties include lush rain forests and breathtaking highland scenery. Visitors to Guinea can trek through the jungles of the south-east, watch an amazing dance performance in Conakry or browse through one of the many bustling markets. Traditional music remains popular with most of the people in Guinea, despite the rise in popularity of more modern forms. National and international stars have blended western instruments with Africans rhythms and instruments, and the two types of music still exist side by side. They cover an enormous range of popular and traditional styles.
