Koyin is located in the eastern region of the West African country of Guinea and is the administrative center of the Préfecture de Koyin. The city is situated along a tributary of the Niger River and is surrounded by a landscape of rolling hills and savannahs with a typical tropical wet and dry season climate.
Coyne's economy is based on agriculture and mining, with the surrounding area producing rice, corn and other crops, as well as mineral resources such as bauxite. As a regional trading hub, Koin is connected by road to other important Guinean cities, but has a relatively weak infrastructure and is characterized by small markets and local commerce.
The population is dominated by the Malinke, Fulani and other ethnic groups, and Islam is widely practiced, with traditional music and festivals. The city is small, with a population of around tens of thousands, and a slow pace of life typical of inland West African towns.
Koin is not a mainstream tourist destination, but its natural beauty and indigenous culture attract some adventure travelers. Take note of Guinea's travel safety tips, and we recommend arriving via the capital Conakry, where local transportation is by motorcycle and bus.
