Ganvié est une bourgade lacustre entièrement construite sur pilotis, ce qui lui vaut d'être surnommée la Venise de l'Afrique. Quelque 40 000 Toffinou (habitants de l'eau) habitent des villages lacustres, dont Ganvié est le plus important. Comme sur la terre ferme, cette petite ville est structurée en rues, quartiers et marchés auxquels on accède en pirogue. Quelques ilots artificiels ont également été créés çà et là par les habitants, pour apprendre à leurs enfants à marcher. Car, auparavant, un habitant de la lagune se trouvait stigmatisé par ses compatriotes en arrivant sur la terre ferme, à cause de sa démarche non assurée. Voici l'accueil qu'on réserve aux Yovos (les Blancs) à notre arrivée à Ganvié.

Ganvié est une bourgade lacustre entièrement construite sur pilotis, ce qui lui vaut d'être surnommée la Venise de l'Afrique. Quelque 40 000 Toffinou (habitants de l'eau) habitent des villages lacustres, dont Ganvié est le plus important.
Comme sur la terre ferme, cette petite ville est structurée en rues, quartiers et marchés auxquels on accède en pirogue. Quelques ilots artificiels ont également été créés çà et là par les habitants, pour apprendre à leurs enfants à marcher. Car, auparavant, un habitant de la lagune se trouvait stigmatisé par ses compatriotes en arrivant sur la terre ferme, à cause de sa démarche non assurée.

Canoe trip to Ganvie in Benin
Trip by canoe to the island of Ganvie, where I got a warm welcome by the friendly people of this tiny island.It's commonly believed that the Tofinu people settled here around 400 years ago and built their lake village to escape slavers who came from the Fon tribe and were not allowed to fight in water for traditional reasons (or perhaps could not swim). Hence the Tofinu were safe to build their homes on the water. Ganvie is marketed as the "Venice of Africa", -

Travel to Bhutan(Dochula Pass 3100mts in Bhutan)..MOV
Thimphu to Punakha goes northeast and one of the highlights of the journey is at Dochu La Pass (3100m), the highest point between Thimphu and Punakha. From here when the sky is clear, one can enjoy a spectacular and panoramic view of the snow-capped peaks to the north that are above 7000m. The pass has 108 chortens (Stupa), honoring those who laid down their lives while flushing out insurgents from southern Bhutan in December 2003. Chortens are Buddhist reliquaries and memorials to the teachings of the Buddha. Sometimes, stupas carry relics of the Buddha or revered monks. Whether or not there are relics inside, the stupas mark the landscape with reminders of the Buddha's teachings. It has multi-colored prayer flags fluttering in the breeze.Its believed that if you host the prayer flags the... -

Entry from: Ganvie, Benin
Entry Title: "Ganvie Village, Benin, December 14, 2007"
Entry:
"As the largest stilt-village in Africa and home to about 30,000 Tofinu tribe members, all of whom live in dwellings built about two meters above Lake Nokoue, Ganvie is one of Benin's leading tourist magnets. The tribe allegedly came to this fishing-based lifestyle on the lake in the 1600s when the people fled there to escape the slave-hunting Dahomey tribe whose religious customs banned them from venturing into the water.
For us Ganvie was a short drive north from Cotonou and a stop for several hours for a pirogue ride from shore to the stilt village, a boat trip on which we saw plenty of fishermen and hundreds of small boats carrying people back and forth between the village and the mainland, most human-powered. The term "stilt village" conjured up certain images in my mind from previous travels, specifically those of a stilt village I visited in Phan Nga Bay in Thailand in 1996, images that naively led me to ask Dave before we got to Ganvie, "Will we have a chance to get out and walk around in the stilt village?" I soon discovered the answer was "No". Whereas in Thailand I visited a very large densely-populated village where homes and businesses were all connected above the water by virtual wooden streets, in Ganvie the individual houses were widely separated, no more than a few dwellings per cluster, and boats the only means of transport between the clusters. We made a few stops at shops where healthy doses of tourist tack were made available for our shopping convenience, but this being West Africa even the most touristy of sights was far from overrun by commercialism, making for a very pleasant afternoon excursion."

We passed coffee and cotton plantations and the views w**e spectacular. Our first night was in Kpalime, a small town with not the most to off** but which had a really nice vibe, relaxed and laidback. From th**e we headed to the capital, Lome and spent a few nights on the beachfront. The surf crashed all night and the palm trees waved in the breeze. We could get used to this!

Kelley, Cristy, and I set off first, but many oth** Peace Corps Benin volunte**s would join us lat** on and bring our numb** up to 12! But the three of us girls got to explore Niamey on our own, and we also had ourselves an adventure in the sparse bush south of Niamey when we decided to look for the last "wild" giraffes in West Africa.

Thimphu to Punakha goes northeast and one of the highlights of the journey is at Dochu La Pass (3100m), the highest point between Thimphu and Punakha. From here when the sky is clear, one can enjoy a spectacular and panoramic view of the snow-capped peaks to the north that are above 7000m. The pass has 108 chortens (Stupa), honoring those who laid down their lives while flushing out insurgents from southern Bhutan in December 2003. Chortens are Buddhist reliquaries and memorials to the teachings of the Buddha. Sometimes, stupas carry relics of the Buddha or revered monks. Whether or not there are relics inside, the stupas mark the landscape with reminders of the Buddha's teachings. It has multi-colored prayer flags fluttering in the breeze.Its believed that if you host the prayer flags the prayers are carried away by the breeze and benifits the sentient being and ultimately good comes back to you.It is also a great place for the photographer for more details contact us at http://tripasiatrekhimalayatravelbhutantour.com/
