Located on Lake Nokoué in Benin, Africa, Ganvié is a magical floating village of over 20,000 inhabitants.  From houses to schools to markets, everything is built on the water creating a unique and unforgettable scene. Built in the 17th century by the Tofino people to escape slavery, the village is a living museum of traditional culture and lifestyle. People travel by small wooden canoes 🛶 and fishing is the main source of income, creating a unique and peaceful life for the Ganvié.

I’m grateful for your appreciation and the thoughtful response to my post.
