Benin Attractions & Landmarks Guide

Sandwiched between giant Nigeria and tiny Togo in West Africa, little Benin – formerly a French colony and site of the ancient Kingdom of Dahomey – is best known as the birthplace of voodoo. You can still witness authentic voodoo ceremonies here, but you can also view wildlife (including lions, elephants, and hippos) in its well-kept national parks, enjoy palm-fringed ocean beaches, visit remote stilt villages in its north and vibrant cities in its south – West Africa in microcosm.
