Benin Travel Video - If youre heading to West Africa to unearth lost treasure, look no further than Benin. This club-shaped country, on the western edge of Nigeria, was once one of the most powerful empires in Africa -- the Dahomey kingdom. The ruins of the Dahomeyans palaces and temples can be seen in Abomey, while Ouidah is a poignant reminder of where their riches came from: the slave trade. The Route dEsclaves in Ouidah was the last walk on African soil for slaves bound for Brazil and the Caribbean. Museums here and in Porto Novo, Benins lagoon-side capital, examine the resultant Afro-Brazilian society and culture. Cotonou, on the other hand, is urban Africa at its most frazzling and polluted - but is not without its own charms, a lively nightlife and good shopping being a couple of them.
Regardless of the ill-gotten Dahomeyan gains glittering in the Musée Historique dAbomey, there are plenty of treasures on Benins dusty streets and palm-fringed beaches. This is the birthplace of voodoo, the countrys national religion, exported by the slaves and distorted by Hollywood. Voodoo is an important part of everyday life and most towns bear signs of it, such as the fetish markets stocked with the heads and skins of every animal imaginable.
Elephants, lions and crocodiles can be seen in more animated form in the northern wildlife parks, notably Pendjari, one of the best in West Africa. Then there are the stilt villages, home to thousands in the southern lagoons, and the northern tata somba (fortlike mud huts) built by the insular Somba people. Not only is Benin a richly historical and cultural country, this politically stable nation is one of the easiest parts of West Africa to travel in.

Imagens da Cidade de Cotonou - Benim
*Ville de Cotonou - Bénin
*City of Cotonou - Benin
Cotonou ou Cotonu é a maior cidade do Benim. É um porto no golfo da Guiné. Tem cerca de 760 mil habitantes. Foi um Estado autónomo até ao século XVIII, quando passou para o Reino do Daomé. Em 1883 foi ocupada pelos franceses. Foi também nesta cidade que foi assinado em 2000 o acordo de Cotonou.
É a cidade mais populosa do país, e sede ainda de numerosos órgãos governamentais e representações consulares e diplomáticas estrangeiras - apesar de, legalmente, a capital do Benim não ser Cotonou, mas sim a vizinha Porto Novo.

Travel Benin Republic: one night in Abomey. ZeeGoes BackPacking!
#TravelTuesdaywithZeeGoes
This time around, I traveled through the West of Africa, backpacking through Benin Republic and recorded this in a town called Abomey.
Abomey really has a lot going for it from a historical stand point and is also home to a massive vodoun festival every year, but I was not there for that; I just wanted a spot to chill before heading further north of Benin Republic. The kids that I got to play with and little bits I experienced made the town an unexpected pleasure.
It also did not hurt that I spent less than 10k for a dinner and breakfast lodge. Cheers to seeing more of Africa, and in this case West Africa
Also note that the Royal palace is a UNESCO site, so another plus for UNESCO site hunters.
