Ciudad de la Paz (Spanish: [θjuˈðað ðe la ˈpaθ], lit.'City of Peace'), previously known as Djibloho or Oyala, and sometimes by its anglicised name ‘’’City of Peace’’’ commonly known as La Paz, is the capital city of Equatorial Guinea and is still developing. Established as an urban district in Wele-Nzas in 2015, it is also the administrative headquarters of Djibloho, Equatorial Guinea's newest province created in 2017, and is located near the town of Mengomeyén. In 2017, the city was officially named Ciudad de la Paz ("City of Peace").

The planned city's location was chosen for its easy access, milder climate, and inland location, as the 2004 Equatorial Guinea coup attempt raised fears about maritime access to the capital. It was designed by the Portuguese Studio for Architecture and Urbanism FAT – Future Architecture Thinking. It is projected to have around 200,000 inhabitants, a new Parliament building, a number of presidential villas and an area of 8150 hectares. The construction of this new capital has been criticized by the political opposition to President Teodoro Obiang, who was the driving force behind the initiative. The government of Equatorial Guinea began to move to the city in early 2017.
