This is one of the most spectacular places I’ve travelled to. Ganvie is a unique village located in the Benin Republic, often referred to as the "Venice of Africa." It is built entirely on stilts over Lake Nokoué, making it one of the largest lake villages in the world. The village is home to the Tofinu people, who originally settled there to escape the slave trade. The community has adapted to living on the water, with houses, markets, and even schools all situated on stilts.Ganvie is accessibl

NWE on Instagram: "Ganvié, Benin 🇧🇯 ______ Ganvié, a distinctive lakeside city in southern Benin on Lake Nokoué, was built in the 18th century to escape slave raids. The village, thriving on stilts, has a rich history, including the legendary tale of King Agbogdobé transforming into an osprey and later a crocodile to guide his people to safety on the island. Ganvié stands as a testament to resilience and cultural heritage. ______ 🎥 @visualsbyponzio"
