Village Artisanal de Ouagadougou

Reviewed By Kbreedlove50

From 2007-2010 the Village was a favorite place to take short-term visitors to expose them to a wide variety of arts, crafts, and frankly, initiative on display in Burkina Faso. Tuareg leatherwork, Mossi metal casting, fabric dyeing, musical instrument construction, wood carving, weaving (cloth and reconditioned plastic grocery bags), and my favorite, Papier du Sahel. PdS is a women's co-op that manually re-processes used paper (they loved the finely shredded paperfrom the embassy) to make greeting cards, notepads, etc. Anyway, the Village is an interesting, must-see spot for any visitors. It's compact, well-designed, and has ample parking outside its wall.

Ouagadougou Markets

A fire destroyed the biggest of the area street markets in 2003, so other centers have popped up around the town for arts and crafts, foodstuffs and souvenirs.
