City centre market, Maison des Jeunes, along the Niger river

| What's really great: |
|
the people were friendly, kids like to follow you, and the fact that people go out of their way to help you, even if you don't need it.

for an excellent guide who cares about his work, the people, the culture and eco tourism, contact Siaka Traore.. he is much respected within the Dogon community and has built schools for them with the money he makes guiding. A very good person to know while travelling in Mali/Burkina. 223-671-4915 or traoresiaka777@yahoo.fr

| Very brief! I#m glad some positive words. Explore africa and asia more and you will find most cities "polluted, smokey, dusty"! Is it fair to compare Bamako with Edmonton? |
