With a past both fascinating and sobering, an ancient culture and amazing, open landscapes special to West Africa, Benin will take you beyond your imagination. Delve into the history of the Dahomey Kingdom, starting with the ruins and museum at Abomey. Learn more about the tragic slave trade and the last walk on African soil at the Route d’Esclaves in Ouidah. Benin is the land of voodoo and the fetish markets are a must-see. For shopping of a more normal nature, the Malanville market is lots of fun. Head south to see the stilted villages on the lagoons or go north to Pendjari for some wildlife spotting.
