Monumelle, Dakar, Senegal

Dakar, Senegal.

African historic statue, built by a Chinese firm under the countrie’s initiative so as to boost tourism, revenue, integration of African culture and era of slave trade. The monument; a statue of father and his wife shouldering their child in the then slave trade period. A three storey museum inside the statue accessible with a high powered electric lift. It gives u a clear view of Dakar, Atlantic Ocean and minarets from old ancient mosques.

It’s a historical site to visit. Give it a try.

Hello @Marafankt3 ,

Thank you for sharing this photo with us, the area looks amazing and the statue very big! Was this your first visit there?

Is this a famous destination among locals and tourists? Are there any places nearby, where one can have something to eat and drink?

I am going to remove the Arabic language label from your post as it doesn’t contain such. Only posts written in a specific language should have the corresponding label. You can find more information in this article: How do I find posts in my preferred language?
