Tourism in Liberia

In the past, a large amount of tourists from the United States visited Liberia. Liberia's economy, including the tourist industry, was badly damaged by civil war in the country, and has not yet recovered. The accommodation available to tourists is poor, as is Liberia's transport infrastructure.cite book |title=Geography of Travel & Tourism |last=Hudman |first=Lloyd E. |url=http://books.google.ie/books?id=MyGjpyNAur0C |year=2002 |publisher=Thomson Delmar Learning |isbn=0766832562 |pages=383 ] cite web |url=http://www.euromonitor.com/Travel_And_Tourism_in_Liberia |title=Travel and Tourism in Liberia |accessdate=2008-06-21 |publisher=Euromonitor |date=April 2007 ]
