Best for: A mud mosque older than the country, eroded stone fins, and the biggest film festival in Africa
Burkina Faso in 8 days: Bobo-Dioulasso, the Sindou peaks and Loropéni
Ouagadougou → Bobo-Dioulasso → Banfora → Sindou → Loropéni → Ouagadougou
A hand-moulded mosque rebuilt by its own neighbourhood every year, sandstone blades standing out of the bush, hippos in a lake you reach by dugout, and thousand-year-old stone walls nobody can fully explain — in a country where armed groups hold a large share of the territory and every government says so.
