Nestled in the north west corner of Benin, Pendjari National Park span a vast 4,800 km2. Representing one of the last true wildernesses of West Africa, the park supports an astonishing array of flora and fauna: contributing to it being added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2017. On seemingly endless savannahs, herds of herbivores graze under the watchful eye of lounging lions; while elephants and buffalo quench their thirst at tranquil pools, and an incredible variety of birdlife can be spotted amongst the trees.

modern, informative, free and good guiding. It was easily worth the 1.5 hours we spent there. Have a look at their shop and furniture covers - extremely colorful

Beautiful, colourful, smelly, crowdy street market where you can find almost everything you may need. Get prepared to negotiate for hours for every little thing. The only non-negotiable prices are for wax tissues (there are so many!). Definitely my favourite place in Cotonou.
