Porto-Novo, the capital of Benin, is a city steeped in history and marked by fascinating colonial architecture. Known for its Brazilian-style Great Mosque, originally built as a church, the city’s streets are a testament to the influence of Afro-Brazilian culture.
Parakou is not a typical tourist city like Ganvié or Ouidah, but for travelers interested in seeing the “real” Benin, its lively atmosphere, local traditions, and strategic location make it a rewarding stop. It’s also a good base if you’re planning to continue north to Pendjari National Park, Park W, or the Atacora mountains.
Explore vibrant food markets, street stalls, and restaurants to truly experience the vibrant flavors that make Beninois cuisine so enticing.
