Luanda is Angola's capital and an important Atlantic port. Its bay, shoreline and extensive built-up areas reveal different aspects of a city shaped by trade and national government. The coastal setting remains essential to its identity.

The port connects the city with international maritime routes and the Angolan hinterland. This role distinguishes Luanda from inland centres and explains part of its longstanding importance.
The Portuguese foundation dates to 1576. The modern metropolis has changed considerably since then, so one colonial chapter cannot describe the whole city. Historic areas, waterfront development and large residential districts belong to different periods within the same urban landscape.
