The Village Artisanal de Ouagadougou is a great place to get acquainted with the local color. This is an original place where you can buy souvenirs of any kind; what is more, everything is handmade. The building “village” is truly impressive – it immediately becomes clear that this place is worth a look. The Laongo Sculpture Symposium is a wonderful place – you can examine the compositions here for a very long time. They are located near the capital of Burkina Faso. Here you can have a look at the sculptures of a tortoise, mermaids, and women’s heads. However, among the compositions, there are some that you cannot make out immediately what they are, and you can only guess and argue about what it is. This is another colorful place in the country.
In order to feel yourself as if you were in an African fairy tale, it is worth visiting the Reserve de Nazinga; this is a real safari. Elephants have become a peculiar decoration with which you can take pictures. Antelopes, monkeys, warthogs, and small crocodiles also live here – as you can see, the animal world is truly unique. Where else can one feel this unique atmosphere of touching the wild nature? Perhaps there are few such places in the world and this is one of them, so you should not miss the chance to visit it at all. Another interesting park to visit is called Parc Urbain Bängr-Weoogo. The views here are rather impressive, and nature amazes from the very first sight.
