A mysterious, charming country called Togo

by Bonobo2005 - last update: Nov 20, 2003

During the short week I spent in Togo, I didn't really manage to understand the many mysteries of life and the secrets of society here.

What I saw and experienced was a beautiful country with its own identity, and- especially in the north - great people, that unfortunately have to suffer from an incompetent dictatorship.

My Itinerary

I crossed the Ghanaian border in the hills near Kpalimé and spent a long weekend in Lomé, during which I visited the local markets and beaches.

Then I travelled up north, stopping only in Kara, before heading towards the Togo/Benin border at Nadoba Village, situated in the Tamberma Valley, which is famous for it's fortress-like architecture!

After an unexpected partynight in Nadoba, I crossed the border to Boukoumbe (Benin).
