Screenshots from the Sao Tome and Principe circuit
Around the Sao Tome and Principe track
Pico Cão Grande rises like a needle out of the jungle, and the São Sebastião fort guards the bay. A colonial roça house sits among cocoa palms, and banana plants grow thick beside the road. Pastel houses line the town section. Pickups and mopeds are parked by the fences, the banner reads Bem-vindos, and the boards read São Tomé.
