Palacio do Povo
You can’t go inside, and stern-faced guards in camouflage uniforms will dissuade you from snapping photographs. Their serious demeanor sharply contrasts with the palace's happy pastel pink color. With tall palms lining the front, it looks more like a resort than a place of political business. The complex stands next door to the Cathedral of Sao Tome. With the waterfront and Parque Popular also nearby, the sights together make a nice morning or afternoon stroll.
