<p>The vegetation of the area also varies with the ecological sub zones. The high altitude parts are<br>characterized by sparsely wooden savannah whereas tall grass species grow in the lowlands around<br>the area of transition between the two main sub ecological zones. Only small patches of natural<br>forests are found especially along the valleys of the mountainous zones and in the plain. Much of<br>the natural vegetation in Ndu, Talla and Wowo villages has been replaced with eucalyptus<br>plantations. In fact, the great modification that has been effected on the natural vegetation of the<br>area is attributed to human activities like farming, grazing and construction works.<br>There are potential touristic sites within the municipality but not yet harnessed. Nothing has been<br>intentionally done to promote tourism in the area. However, business tourism is common, with tens<br>of thousands of businessmen visiting the main markets (Ndu, Ntumbaw and Ntaba) weekly. The<br>natural touristic sites within the municipality are:<br></p>
