Joal Fadiouth
Joal Fadiouth, SenegalJoal is the one located on the mainland, birthplace of the first president Léopold Senghor. Fadiouth is on a small island reached by a long wooden bridge entirely of shells: these shell middens are actually the remains of the molluscs eaten here by humans since ancient times and a quiet shell graveyard, which has been deposited over the centuries, hosting both Muslim and Christian tombs. It is possible to take the bridge but also to take a canoe to connect Joal to Fadiouth.2 hours • Admission Ticket FreeView Location2

the sacred baobab of the village of Fadial, is a mastodon, if we compare it to the other baobabs that grow in Senegal. It is the largest baobab in West Africa and measures more than 26m in circumference. according to the curator, the baobab is 850 years old, a hole of a small width of barely 50 centimeters allows access to the interior. If you have the courage, you can even go inside, but beware the opening is narrow. This tree has a special history, Its interior cavity served as a cemetery for the griots of the locality.
When they died, they were mummified inside the baobab. For these populations who were animists at the time, the griots did not practice agriculture and burying them underground would make the land infertile. For several years, the griots had been hanging there. It was finally in 1960, says curator Massamba Sall, that this practice was banned. As the place is frequented by travelers, the baobab is surrounded by shops.20 minutes • Admission Ticket FreeView Location
