For anyone who loves or needs to shop, Cross-River is good for cashmere, computers and cameras at the famous Tinapa Resort, built with the same architectural plan as the world's largest business resort in Dubai. But the dusty stalls of the Calabar Market is the place to go to for real treasures. This freewheeling emporium of every imaginable trinket is an absolute do not miss. There are colossal marble statutes; rare and beautiful lilac jade bangles; lime green clarinets and purple trumpets; handmade teapots. The ancient wartime memorabilia? Plentiful and historic.

Millions of tourists participate in the cultural activities wearing costumes representing the four different tribes of the state. Celebrities from around the world participate wearing these costumes with the indigenes. The costumes are made of feathers, fabrics, leaves and local face make-ups that costs between ten to twenty dollars. The different groups then participate in cultural displays of the different tribes in dances, local wrestling, boat riding competition, fishing and different stunts. The last week of the carnival is graced with performances from artists from Hollywood, Nigeria and around the world.
