Africa is maybe the most mysterious continent and most of it remains hidden from the rest of the world. Blessed with a different climate, tall mountains, gorgeous beaches and the most amazing wild life, this continent needs to be on everyone’s travel list. We offer you a few places that are a good starting point to explore this unique continent.

Serengeti National Park, Kenya 

This is the place that makes your heart jump out when you’ll see all those lions, giraffes, rhinos, gazelles and buffalos. With breathtaking nature, this national park is a true treasure. Serengeti Migration happens every year and millions of zebras, antelopes and wildebeests are looking for new green places in Maasai Mara in Kenya.

Gondar, Ethiopia 

This place is known for the huge number of historical remains. Fasil Ghebbi was built in the 17th century by the Emperor Fasilides and is full of castles for the aristocracy, libraries and banqueting halls. You can even notice the European Baroque as a main style of these remains.  

Djennѐ, Mali 

It’s an UNESCO World Heritage Site composed by buildings made from earth baked in the sun and palm fronds. Djenne dates from the 3rd century and has a huge historical meaning.

Located in the heart of West Africa is the town of Djenne, located in central Mali. While you’ve probably never heard of this place, the fact of the matter is that it’s one of Africa’s must-visit destinations.

So, why is Djenne so interesting?

Many consider Djenne to be the oldest still-inhabited city in the entire African continent. It’s been around since around the 3rd century BC. The town was established in the floodlands of the Niger and Bani Rivers, giving it the ability to sustain agriculture despite the dry climate.

Djenne is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and as a place of important value for the study of archeology due to its unique Sudanese Adobe architecture which characterizes nearly all of the town’s buildings.

The Djenne Mosque is the most important and well-known building in the town of 30,000, as it is an important gathering place for the town’s residents and a beautiful example of the city’s quintessential architecture.

Built with sun-dried mud bricks, the current mosque was built in 1907 and has survived for over a century.

The mosque isn’t the only building in Djenne that was built with this architectural technique, however. Nearly all of the homes and businesses of the city also feature this unique construction method.

Djenne is a must-see if you love architecture and want to check out an off-the-beaten path destination.
