Trip of the month: Explore Dakar

My Magazine 2022/07
2 min
Colourful, large, cosmopolitan, colonial, rich in culture, music, fashion and much more, Dakar extends along the southern part of the peninsula of Cap-Vert on the Atlantic Ocean with over two million inhabitants. It is a charming place to visit. Strolling on foot or travelling around by taxi are fun activities full of exciting discoveries. This former colonial trading post has evolved into a thriving modern city filled with an envious range of landmarks, attractions, and cultural sites to keep travellers occupied for days.
