Why Visit Benin?
Benin is the birthplace of Vodun and one of West Africa’s most culturally intense destinations. Ouidah’s slave route memorials confront a difficult history, while Ganvié’s stilt village floats entirely on a lagoon and the royal palaces of Abomey recall a powerful pre-colonial kingdom. In the north, savannah parks shelter elephants and lions, and vibrant festivals fill the calendar year-round.
